Mounting brackets for K Planes hydraulic pumps
 
Can anyone tell me if the mounting brackets that bolt to the stringers or transom for the Merc Trim pump are the same for merc K Planes hydraulic pumps.

Thanks.

yes, and those brackets fit the old style tall pumps, and the short pumps with the clear plastic reservoir.

There are 2 bracket types, the older style has a bolt you can remove to undo the mating brackets and the pump can be lifted upward. The new style is a solid aluinum bracket with a stainless steel retaining bracket. In the newer style you have to unbolt the entire bracket to get the pump off of the stringer.

Cheers Barry, it looks like the ones I need are the older aluminum ones and hopefully I have a couple sorted.

Many thanks, I appreciate the information.
