  Alan,
  Take a picture.
  
  I know when I had the yard install my autopilot they did some adjustments to the quadrant stops to insure the they stopped before the autopilot drive unit reached it's ends. Not sure if that is what you are looking at.

  Alan,
  
  Not sure about your particular set-up, but in general if you turn a boat's rudder too far it ceases to be a steering device and instead becomes a brake.

  John, you were right…. the blocks were put into keep from hitting the ends of the hydralic cylinder. I should have thought of that.
  Thanks for your input.
