Hello-
I have had some trouble with my trim & tilt single ram system. The unit would not trim out (up) under load. I had the seals replaced, and this helped, but still would not trim out under load. I decided I could live with this as long as it was not leaking.
Now after about 2 months after I had the seals replaced it is acting up again. This is the 'self bleading' type of unit, when the unit is trimmed out (up) all the way, and then I start to trim it back down, the seal at the top of the cylinder that is around the rod 'pops' out of place and the unit leaks a bunch of oil. I've tried to fit the seal back in place but then when I tilt the unit back down again it just pops right out.
If you could provide some guidance I would greatly appreciate it.
