Post motor repair ? lift actuator
Ok so I have a 04, I believe, mudbuddy 24hp honda shorttail hyperdrive. to tilt the motor up and down i press a button in for a gas powered easy lift actuator. So the actuator was getting a little weak, wasn't throwing the motor up like it used to so I ordered a new one from mudmuddy, got it and no instructions, no biggie seems easy enough to replace so I try and now I can't get it to move at all. Figure it can't be the cable from the button to acuator because then i should still get the same movement I had before. Any ideas or help whould be great. If i don't get any responses on here i will be calling mudbuddy on monday. Thanks

There is a adjustment on the trim if I remember, been a few years since had to replace one, next time look into the trim upgrade (like the hyper sport), the original button style was junk only lasted a season or two if your lucky............and was a pain to adjust while running, and leaked down when ya hit something.......................Real quick gonna be pulling my rig out this week sometime could look at it for ya during the day, if ya want.....................let me know
