Hi,
I'm trying to reinstall my trim / tilt cylinders on a dps-a volvo penta drive after i rebuilt them. I'm trying to figure out how to route the hydraulic lines in and around the bellows. the port lines seem to fit well by going between the exhaust and u-joint bellows, but the starboard lines are causing me major headaches. It almost seems like they want to wrap completely around the exhaust bellows, but this seems to create too much tension on the lines. I currently have them going straight up and back down, but now they want to pop out the side of the drive and risk getting pinched when turning. In this configuration there is also pressure put on the pump unit when turning all the way to starboard. couldn't find any info in the service manual. Any help would be appreciated! thanks.
