Man I want to thank you. I have been for 2 days looking for just this. Your the only one who actually shows how to remove them. Thank you so much. Keep making and showing your diy videos. New subscriber
this stuff will be handy for me when I do this job on my sterndrive on my boat the boat will be a bayliner or a glastron this video is good makes sense for us sterndrive boat owners with disability this is great you guys are great at making sterndrive maint easy I hope to use your products in the future from mick walker
1) Do you recommend NeverSeize on the Zinc mount bolts? 2) Do you recommend one of those struts to help hold up the outdrive while trailering... (they seem to make sense to have)
I have a question that I'm struggling to find a answer to. Alpha one- Gen 2 - I have a decent amount of up/down freeplay on my outboard coming from the bushings on the rams. Looks like from the back and front bushings. is this normal freeplay or should it be tight?
One thing this video does not show is that the long hydraulic lines are different for left and right, so make sure that when attaching the back end points towards the outside of the cylinder.
Hi. I got 5.0GXI volvo penta engine. Everything works great, but I noticed a milky oil in trim reservoir tank. Do you think it's cylinder seals leaking? Thank you.

Thank You for this video, you showed me some things I did not think about removing/installing my trim cylinder.
Do you have to drain the fluid first? Before removing lines? My seals are leaking? Is it better to rebuild or just buy new ones and replace?
I am having the same issue, did you fix it already?
No I haven’t

Question, you keep all the lines connected and everything put together while bleeding and adding fluid
Yes yes yes this is simple stuff now let's move to the Volvo sterndrive where the pins for the trim cylinders are inside behind the engine
Questions do they need bleeding or just refill fluid?
I’m also curious cause I’m about to do these

So no Teflon tape on the hose thread? Mine had some on it at removal but it seems the oil just degrades it immediately

Water. That be foam son.
I am going to try this repair if my mechanic still does not answer. I have to find out which gen my outdrive is first. What kind of lube should I use?
a bit too much rushing,you did not show which pipe goes where,on the transom ?
