Re: Help How to change tilt/trim line

I'm not familiar with the trim lines on a Cobra but I expect it uses hydraulic lines with small hex fittings. The best tool to remove it is a line wrench. It looks like a box end with an opening in the end opposite the handle. Measure the fitting with a vernier and you can get by with 1 wrench, rather than buying a set.
