I am surprized to read that, on mine ( 1975 ) the tube is aluminum and the 
fitting to connect to the rubber post looks like cast aluminum, held in place 
by a 1/2 in bolt. I taped an open 1/2 in key to the tube so I can tighten it 
appropriately in a short time.Tried it once, it fits well and make a good backup

 The cast aluminum tiller head fitting on my previous 27 foot boat broke.  
Fortunately I was in the marina and not far from my slip.  I clamped a large 
pair of Vise Grips on what was left of the fitting to get into the slip.  It 
wasn't easy.
