500+ hr salt water lift kept boat

at the beginning of every season one drive sticks a bit and doesnt want to go down unless under way and its still slow. This usually fixes itself in couple runs.

This year port drive is slow trimming up when under way. Put about 10 hrs so far this year and still an issue. Any ideas on the fix? new bushings where cylinder bolts to drive?

Have the rams rebuilt. Or it could be blown check valves in the pump. when was the last time you changed the trim pump oil. Is it white or milky?

Need to rebuild the trim rams !!!!!!!!!! about 5 years ago

You can rebuild the Rams but honestly there are Ones on eBay already rebuilt and cheap enough...I'd go that route.

I have a bunch of nice ones if anyone needs any

I dont think they need replacing at the moment, by sticky i meant after i trim the boat once on plane the portdrive needs one quick bump from the individual switch to be even on indicator, thats new this season. Other than that they work fine. Ill try the WD40 route first this weekend. Next time the boat is on land where can be worked on ill full service them.
