So I bought a 1973 fabuglas boat the other day. The guy had taken off the power trim cause trim motor had went bad...it was a arco 6228 motor that had been taken off a prestolite hya-5004.. The motor was in pieces and im not real sure if it was ever really on the motor... Anyhow I researched the net and come to conclusion that it wasnt original motor bu was a replacement, found one on ebay pretty cheap... It got delivered yesterday and I just cant figure this out.. It is basically the same motor as the broken one, tried to put it on the trim, but it would go completely on.. I examined closer and it looks like my trim requires a motor with a shaft that looks like a flat center spline that inserts into it, both of my 6228 motors are plain round shaft.. I look online for 6228 and it shows that they have the spline on them... Am I missing something?
. Did I even get the right motor?
Sorry post so long... Thanks guys
