My lower helm wheel is really loose. I took of the cover and found the nut as tight as possible but I still can mover the wheel forward and backwards quite a bit. Does anyone have an idea on what I can do to fix this ? We have a 2001. 430 aft cabin

Failing any other help and you need a replacement wheel, consider looking at marinehardware.com which may well have been the original source for yours.
If your wheel is like mine, a teak arrangement with a bronze hub perhaps it's just the wheel looseness from shrinking of the teak wood that fits in the hub. Mine was loose and I was able to shim it up a little.
