HI Everyone

The adjustable three point linkage for tilt had rusted up so I put a big pipe wrench on and now it's stripped! I will weld it for now but we use the tilt all the time. Anyone know of a cheap replacement? Canadian source would be better because it really sucks turning a $100 bill into 7 $10 bills and then paying duty on top of that and I feel a bit violated!

Some may ask why did you use a big wrench and strip it in the first place?

My motto is " If it jams, force it and if it breaks it needed fixin anyway"

I have been poking around here and there and still havent found a decent one. Mine slips i thread it too far down. So i built a hydraulic one.

I lost a little height, but will work at getting it back when i find time.
Used trim cylinders from a 175 mercury outboard. No pump,just a valve.
I know there is limited access to marine stuff over there in the gap,but a pair of short stroke hydraulic cylinders would work. 3" max would equate to 6" total adjustment between the 2 arms.
I should build a few sets.
