Are the trim rams the same on SX/DPS-A outdrives as a DPS-B? I have determined that one or both my rams on my DPS-B drive must have an internal leak allowing fluid to be pushed past an internal seal when the boat is moving faster than 8 MPH. I have seen rebuild kits listed for SX?DPS-A drives. I'm hoping the rams are the same... Thank you in advance for any knowledge you can share!

Ayuh,..... Check the part numbers,.... If the numbers are the same, the rams are the same,....

just buy the seals.

easy fix, under 30 minutes or one beer with right tools.
