For the life of me I can't figure out what the part number is for the hoses that connect to the trim rams. The rams are not pictured but I do have them now.
Depends on which trim rams you have.
Do they have internal or external lines. What is the serial number of your MC-1 drive? Or even year and what engine is it for.
Not all MC-1 drives are created equal.
The boat is a 1975 Thunderbird Formula F18. The trim rams came off of a MC 160 that was on a 1970 17' Glasspar.
I have not found a serial number for my drive yet. I do know there is hose connections on the forward end of the rams and the outdrive connection in at the bottom of the transom plate. (i think that's what its called)

You need item 7 for the hoses. Which one, I couldn't tell you. But since the cylinders are older, I would guess the ones in the lower serial number range.
