Hello all, i am new to boating and have been trying to fix my tilt/trim on my 50 hp, 1993 lowe. The problem is that i took the trim apart and replaced the o-rings and seals. Now the trim rod cylinder will not go back into the housing, it is stopping just past the threads inside the housing and seems to just be butted up against the inside of the cylinder housing when i tried to reinsert the rod and piston assy. Does anyone have any idea what the problem may be? I bought the actual replacement ring kit #0435567. I even tried cutting a coke can and wrapped it around the piston to try to put it back in with no luck. Any ad all help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
