Hello,<br /><br />I am interested in the feasability of changing my Touch-Trim unit (which still woirks) to a power setup. My controls are wired for the change. The engine is a 1993 (Tracker) Johnson 40 hp twin, Model TJ40ELET. I have friend that has a parts engine, but it is an 80's 70 or 75 hp Johnson triple (don't know mod # now). Would that unit possibly work?<br /><br />The Touch trim unit seems to work ok, but is kind of a hassle. I guess I am not ready to spend 500 bucks, but I can swing a couple hundred if it would work. I have the wiring harness, and the control is retrofitted.<br /><br />Thanks <br /><br />Tom

The 40-50 tilt and trim system is a single cylinder unit that only fits those motors. The 3cyl. and larger trim systems are completely different. Sorry.

Thanks for the reply Seahorse, it was worth a try. I'll keep looking, but the Touch Trim still seems to work.<br /><br />TE
