Amazon trim cylinders?

[jachin99]

My trim cylinders are getting old and I'm thinking they are sucking in water. I'm shopping for replacements if need be and I see that the cylinders are about half the cost if I grab a pair off Amazon. Does anyone have experience with these

rebuild them or have a shop do it

Did you check Iboats store for trim cylinders, the generous host of this free forum is an online marine store.

If bargain motorcycle parts from Amazon are cheap foriegn made knock-offs, I'd expect similar for non-OEM Mercruiser trim cylinders
