1977 Johnson 70hp Power tilt and trim.

[Westernlife]

I bought a 1977 Johnson 70hp over the winter to put on a boat I was building, it came with the motor side set-up for power trim/tilt, the tilt plate and cylinders but not the rest, and the boat was completely gutted. What is a good kit to buy? Going to need the pump and control. Hoping to not break the bank so if anybody has a semi cheap kit they know fits any help would be appreciated.

Depends on your ingenuity, but you can adapt a Mercruiser / Mercury outboard reservoir and pump to drive that.-----The unit that mounts inside the boat.

I'm pretty engenuitive, especially when it means I can do it for cheaper lol, I usually build all my own stuff take 4 things to make one etc haha. What year/ engine sizes have the inboard mounted units? Or do they all?
