Installation Guide

  1. Safety First: Disconnect the boat's battery to prevent any electrical accidents.
  2. Access the Connector: Locate the existing manifold connector assembly on the transom. Access may require tilting the stern drive.
  3. Prepare for Fluid: Place a drain pan and absorbent rags under the hydraulic lines to catch any spilling trim fluid.
  4. Disconnect Lines: Carefully loosen and disconnect the hydraulic trim lines from the junction block body.
  5. Remove Old Assembly: Unfasten the two mounting bolts holding the old manifold assembly and remove it, along with the old gaskets.
  6. Clean Surface: Thoroughly clean the mounting surface on the transom, removing any old gasket material or corrosion.
  7. Install New Gaskets: Place the new gaskets onto the new junction block body.
  8. Mount New Assembly: Position the new manifold assembly and secure it using the new mounting bolts and lockwashers. Tighten to manufacturer-specified torque.
  9. Reconnect Lines: Re-attach the hydraulic trim lines to the new junction block. Ensure the fittings are tight to prevent leaks.
  10. Bleed and Refill: Top off the power trim fluid reservoir and bleed the system of any air according to your drive's service manual.
  11. Test Operation: Reconnect the battery. Operate the trim system up and down several times, checking for smooth operation and any signs of leaks.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this manifold connector will fit my specific Mercruiser drive?

A: This kit is designed for Mercruiser R/MR, Alpha One Gen 2, and Bravo I/II/III models made from 1983 and onward. The best way to confirm fitment is to match your existing part's number to one of the cross-reference numbers listed (e.g., 8M0137703, 98825A4). Visual comparison with the product images is also recommended.

Q: What are the common symptoms of a failing manifold connector?

A: Signs of failure often include hydraulic fluid leaks around the transom-mounted connector, a spongy or unresponsive trim system, or the inability of the stern drive to hold its trim position. Visual inspection may reveal cracks or corrosion on the housing.

Q: Does this kit include everything needed for the job?

A: This kit includes all the core components for the replacement: the plate, block body, gaskets, bolts, and lockwashers. You will need to supply your own tools and fresh power trim/tilt fluid.

Loved the pillows
Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
I don’t get paid for reviews so if you want a real one here ya go …. These pillows are great in my opinion. They came vacuum sealed and popped right up “ big and fluffy” immediately, as in big enough I wasn’t sure they would fit in my pillow cases. I used them last night and even though they are full, big and fluffy they still smashed down to a proper size when I laid my head down. First night in a long time I did wake up with a headache. I was extremely happy with these pillows. Now cooling ….I didn’t really find a difference from a reg pillow but, that again just could be me. Hope this helps

Heavenly Sleep Upgrade – DIORIS Pillows Are a Dream Come True!
I’ve finally found the perfect pillows! The DIORIS Queen Pillows Set of 2 has completely transformed my sleep experience. From the moment I laid my head down, I felt like I was at a luxury hotel — but right in my own bedroom! These pillows strike the ideal balance between softness and support. The premium down alternative filling cradles the head and neck gently, yet offers just the right amount of firmness. Whether I sleep on my side, back, or stomach, these pillows adapt perfectly and keep me comfortable all night long. The slow-rebound, breathable fiberfill is a game changer. It stays cool, supports proper posture, and even helps reduce neck pain — something I’ve struggled with for years. I wake up feeling refreshed and ache-free, which is priceless.

Wonderful
Size: Cooling Queen, Size: Cooling Queen
I absolutely love these pillows From the very first night, I could feel the difference. They are incredibly comfortable, soft, and still provide great support for my neck and head. Plus, the modern design makes my bed look so much cleaner and more elegant. The fabric feels high quality, and the pillows keep their shape really well. I genuinely feel like I’m sleeping better since I started using them. Great value for the price, and I would definitely buy them again. Highly recommend

No more neck pain
Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
I needed new pillows and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m picky about my pillow. I had ordered different ones to try and these were the keepers. They are not too soft nor too firm. I wake up with neck pain and headaches if I don’t have a good pillow. I’m not experiencing any either one now. Make the purchase for yourself and try them.
