This kit fits all FastStrike Trim Tilt units from 1997-Current 115-250 Yamaha trim & Tilt units, 225 & 250 only fit 20" shaft. Use pictures as a reference. All the rods seals in this kit are made out of Viton a very expensive super material formulated by Dupont and will resist everything from ethanal to UV's to Oxidation from salt water environments. You won't find a better kit anywhere for this application, once properly rebuilt these seals will outlive the life of the motor. We also included the 5 O-rings in between the valve body and manifold, if your unit is giving you issues the valve body needs to come off and the 5 O rings need to be replaced. This was a flawed design put together by showa, in a Freshwater application on a bass boat you will see the bolts have stretched and losses their torque form the hydraulic pressure in between the valve body and manifold. In a salt water application salt and corrosion builds between the flange and wedges it apart as well as oxidizing the O-ring grooves and forcing them to fail and fall out of place. If for some reason you cannot build the unit, we offer a rebuild service and we will credit you the amount for the rebuild kit towards the rebuild service of $430. All of our rebuild services come with a 2 Year Warranty.

Not for the novice rebuilder.
Heed before buying...sure it's a gasket kit, however there is no breakdown on which o-rings go to which part. You have to pull the old one and size it up, but some of the bigger O-rings are so close in size that it's hard to tell the correct one. I installed one of the gaskets on the main piston support rod and after reassembly it was leaking out the piston cap because the O-ring supplied was not the same width diameter as the original and was allowing hydraulic fluid to bypass it. Additionally, now that I have the tilt/trim back together, it is making a incredibly loud grinding noise like metal on metal so I'll have to pull it apart again to check the O-rings.This would have been a better kit if it was clear on which rings go where.
