Perfect replacement
This was a drop in replacement for the failed pump assembly on my 2000 Four Winns Horizon Volvo Penta SX tilt/trim unit. It came with two sets of hydraulic line adapters for different thread styles, rubber o-rings and line seals. All it takes is to install the main adapters then the correct line adapters, connect the lines, electrical plug, fill with atf and run it up and down a few times. Took longer to get the boat apart for access than the actual swap. About 2 hours total. Put the old unit in a tub or plastic lined box before loosening the hydraulic lines and cover with a towel since they will spew from pressure. Loosen each one slowly. Carefully select the correct adapter pair. Install the larger orings over the first adapters and the small ones over the tips of the lines.

Not compatible with 3860879 - leaks badly from hose connections
If your existing pump is Volvo Penta Model 3860879 do NOT buy this unit, It will not work.Purchased to replace Volvo Penta OEM part 3860879. After significant effort removing the old (photo Attached) and reinstalling the new pump in a nearly impossible to reach location in the boat bilge it was reconnected and tested. Yes, the fittings threaded in and tightened, everything seemed fine... but it wasn't. When the pump ran the fittings on both connections literally drained fluid out, draining 1/2 the reservoir capacity out into the bilge with just one cycle to raise and lower of the outdrive. The hose end fittings on my system include a small o ring on the tip of the tube (see attached photo). For scale- the hex nut in the pic is 7/16". Check your existing hose end fitting before you order, if your fittings look like this don't buy this unit.To add insult to injury my efforts to reach out to the supplier Rareelectrical to see if they could just supply the correct fittings so I did not have to undergo a repeat of the effort to remove and reinstall the entire unit again was met with a " I couldn't care less" attitude from the person I spoke with on the phone. All of my other attempts to reach out to them (by direct email and by email through amazon system ) went completely ignored and unanswered.Other reviews here also indicated they had a similar issue but were able to find the correct fittings and were able to ultimately use the pump. I tried all local sources and scoured the internet but could not locate the correct fittings. The fitting on the end of the hoses seems to be rather unique and compatible fittings are not easy to find.Ultimately the unit had to be removed in its entirety and returned. Then a suitable replacement had to be found from another source and the whole painful install process repeated all over again. All the while the summers great boating weather days slip away. NOT HAPPY! Hopefully this review can spare someone else the unpleasant experience I had.

Threads dont match up
I bought this as an alternative to the $800.00 part from the manufacturer. The installation team said that the threads dont match up, it leaks like a sob and not worth the headache on the back end. I wouldn't buy it again, but it is installed and slowly leaking in my boat....

Works Great
Replaced a factory Volvo Trim tab with this Tilt Trim motor. Works like the original tilt trim motor. Note: most trim motors don't fail, but if you need a replacement, try this one.

Works well and worth the price.
So far it’s been working for 2+ months. Seems like a good replacement. The fittings aren’t OEM quality but they’re workable.

12 V Trim leaks
The product leaks as mentioned from a previous buyer. I had to have my boat mechanic do an adjustment on the cables for the product to stop leaking. I have a Volvo Penta 2004 and I don't advise buying this product, spend a little more and buy an original part and not this "aftermarket" product.

Works great
Purchased this item for my Volvo Penta SX 190 I/O and it fit just like the old one. It took me less than 15 minutes to install and I was ready to hit the water.

Really good price but some issues
This was not a direct bolt in. The hydraulic fittings were incorrect, being too long to seat the hoses. Also the mounting holes were sae thread where the original is metric. Not sure of any other issues at this time. Good price compared to oem
