Evinrude Tilt Trim Needed

[sirbanks]

I'm looking to add tilt/trim to my old boat (tired of manually hoisting the motor up) and am looking for leads to a complete tilt/tim unit for a '75 Evinrude outboard, 85HP. Any help appreciated!

Banks - I have a 48 SPL (with manual tilt and trim) so I feel your pain. I've been looking at the CMC aftermarket tilt systems. I seems you can pick them up for around $300 to $400. They are a little pricy, but everyone I've asked has said they're worth the money.

Banks - There is also an aftermarket bar which can be attached to the top of your motor. It gives you more leverage to lift the motor up and down. You can get them for around $20 to $40 bucks. I looked at them and decided to pass, but it may be what you're looking for in the short term.
