I have a 1977 Mercury 700, 70hp and looking to add a power trim & tilt, not sure what models will fit. I have research, but all I can find is 1980's and about, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

The separate systems will fit.------That means external rams with pump / motor / reservoir that mount inside the boat.

It's gonna be hard to find the parts to add OEM style TnT to your motor. You need to find the left/right cylinders, pump, hose manifold and other parts for attaching everything. A local hydraulic shop can make the 6 needed hoses.

Two suggestions;

1) Find a donor project or parts boat or motor. Transfer the parts to your motor and sell the leftover unneeded parts.
2) Look for an aftermarket TnT unit like CMC. Used units go for 3-400 bucks on Craig's List.

Good luck.
