Although having one switch is easier to wire ...we all know the trim pumps never move at the same rates up/down.....so even after you use the switch to move them up/down you will end up going to the dash to fine tune later....if you can fit two switches i'd go that route
Or if you can find someone selling the Livorsi dual switch mount then it would save you some time as well.....im not sure if they still make it or not so it may be worth calling them and asking. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...43fb6f5084.jpg |
I took that pic from an old OSO thread of someone selling that assembly :)

Yep! Saw the same thread come up during a search for solutions. Would be a pretty cool find.
And agree on the need to fine tune - mine do not move at the same speed. Cleaning of connections and a flush and fill will great really help that. |

You want a single button connected through diodes to individual buttons for each drive.
That way, the single button moves both drives, while you keep the ability of the individual buttons to control the drives separately. TrimSync is a highly recommended product for keeping drives trimmed at the same height. Marine Industries West sells diode kits. You can also find Mercury trim diode kits on eBay. You can of course also just buy suitable diodes. TrimSync is some big money!! If I see it becoming a big problem I might look into it. |

Watching and learning as I too would like a set-up like this.

Well, that was a disappointing buy.
I received the “kit” this morning. A switch and a sticker. That was it. No wiring, no switch plate, nothing else. All that for $90?! Sending it back and I’ll wire up my own. I’m glad I bought the parts from Great Lakes Skipper. |

I’m glad I bought the parts from Great Lakes Skipper. There is two #3 but different part numbers. I see it as you'd need one of each. #2) 848922 #3) 848926A1 #3) 848926A2 #5) 848923 Maybe even harness #44) 888854A1 Diode harness at that link number #45) $821.00 :eek: I'm aware you got a diode setup elsewhere. And this link may be more relevant as it's the mechanical control parts, not DTS Part numbers are the same. Interesting the handle harness is listed as #8 in this fiche but says NSS. Also there are 4 diode kits at the mechanical link below, 2 for twin engine, about 50ish bucks and 2 for triple at over $1000. :eek: https://www.marineengine.com/parts/m...cal-components |
