Hi, there was a post a while back regarding rebuild of the trim rams.
forums.iboats.com
My question is about replacing the retainer and 0-ring on the ram where the line slips in-to (that is where mine is leaking). The post mentions that "You have to drill out the retainer ring to get to the o-ring."
My question is how do you "drill out the retainer ring"? Hopefully this isn't too dumb of a question...I just don't want to get any metal filings down in the ram.
thanks
DPS-A Trim Cylinder Rebuild
Since I had a leak in one of the cylinders, I decided to rebuild them both...just as well, both had milky water in them. Bill was very helpfull, even sent me a replacement rod seal after I damaged one. Volvo SX - A DPS - A Trim Cylinder Ram Rebuild Kit...
