🚤 Compatibility

Commonly used on:

• OMC Cobra and Volvo Penta SX/DP-SM sterndrive trim systems

• Replacement of earlier fore/aft hose-entry cylinder installations

Typically suits:

• Engine / drive models:

• SX-C, SX-C1, SX-C1AC, SX-CLT, SX-CLT1, SX-R, SX-R1, SX-R2, SX-S and SX-SLT

• SX-M, SX-MLT and SX-MACLT where the model-specific kit instruction confirms fitment

• DP-SM dual-prop sterndrives

• HP Range: Drive application; not engine-horsepower specific

• Engine / Drive Type: Complete twin hydraulic trim-cylinder, hose and mounting-hardware system

• Year Range: Approximately 1994-2006, including conversion of earlier compatible Cobra/SX systems

• Serial / Identification Range: Confirm the transom assembly and original cylinder references. This kit does not suit the later SX-A/DPS-A trim-cylinder family.

🔌 Function

Replaces the complete twin-ram hydraulic actuation system so both cylinders, hoses and mounting points operate as a matched set and hold the sterndrive at the commanded angle.

Common signs of failure or replacement requirement:

• Both original cylinders are leaking or corroded

• Drive settles despite repeated resealing

• Uneven movement caused by mismatched cylinders

• Multiple hose leaks or damaged fittings

• Obsolete first-generation cylinders require conversion to the later service system

📦 Condition

• Brand-new aftermarket replacement kit

• Supplied as new replacement components

• Supplied in suitable retail or equivalent packaging
