Trim issue

[tech62571]

Mercruiser Alpha 1 gen 2

I just rebuilt one of the trim cylinders and reinstalled it.

when I trim down it trims to far going past the paint at the end of the shaft

any ideas on how to correct this?

Not unless you assembled it wrong,

Im 99.9% sure it was put together correctly.

what stops the trim down?

part V when it reaches the bottom of the cylinder

why would it trim further now? it trims past where it used to.
