Simply replace the connectors on your old wire harness with those that match the trim switch. Three connectors are all that's required.
If the hose fittings are the same, then it should work. My searay has a mercruiser and was built in 1976. It was a huge success. All I had to do was move it to a different location.
Yes, the only thing that has changed over the years is whether or not the pipe fittings are quick change connectors, in which case you can simply use the old ones.
I have a four-hose pump as well, and I was curious as to what you discovered to be effective. The same thing happened to me. thought.

After failing to repair my old pump by replacing the actuators, I decided to purchase this complete unit to save time and effort, and to ensure that everything was brand new. The bracket was the only thing I changed, and I wish it had been an option. After noticing that my old bracket had rusted, I decided to replace it with a stainless steel bracket. The transition from the supplied steel to stainless steel was quick and painless. Despite this, I kept my 5-star rating because the price would obviously be higher; I just wish this option was available. The pump itself is excellent; I like that it is relatively quiet but loud enough that I can hear it from beneath the sun deck and know it is operating without having to look at the indicator. br>br>Installation was straightforward: secure it with bolts and connect the wires. Simply fill the reserve tank, move the trim up and down, and refill the reserve tank, repeating the process until the reserve tank is at the proper level. br>br>It's perfect for my Crownline.
Last season, the trim pump in my 2001 Regal I/O broke down. I ordered this pump assembly in July 2014, and it arrived well packaged in two days with Amazon Prime, despite the fact that it was obviously new (e. g. , e. g. , e. g. , e. g. , e. g. , e. , not rebuilt), and the quality was excellent, with a solid foundation. br>br>Even though the mounting space in my Regal was limited and required some contortion, I had no trouble removing the old assembly. Instead of using the two new power cables that came with the pump, I decided to simply re-wire the pump. I used the old cables, which only had a little corrosion that I cleaned off with a small file, and the new pump assembly bracket had a slightly different mounting bracket foot- Because the pump is mounted on a fiberglass shelf, I had to drill two small holes in it. Connecting the old hot and neutral power lines to the screw terminals on the new pump, then plugging in the 3 pin plug for the control line from the helm, was all that was required for the electrical hookup. I sprayed some antiseptic all over the place. For electrical connections in the socket and on screw terminals, use corrosion spay. The pump worked perfectly the first time I used it. br>br>It took me about 60 minutes to complete the repair. However, I spent the majority of that time walking back and forth from my pier to the workshop in search of the tools I required. There was no need for any additional equipment. pliers, a screwdriver set, and a wrench or socket set A drill was also required for a couple of mounting bracket holes. If you're going to do this relatively simple job on your own, I have two recommendations. First, while you can purchase just the pump (rather than the entire assembly), purchasing the entire assembly will save you a lot of time (and, I'm sure, frustration). Second, make certain you've got a fresh bottle on hand. Before you begin the job, make sure you have enough hydraulic fluid on hand. To refill the reservoir in the new pump, you'll need about 6 to 8 ounces of water.
Two of these have been installed in the boats of my customers. It performed flawlessly as expected. Right now, I'm placing a new order. If you're willing to pay $900 for the same thing in a Mercury box, go ahead. There are only a limited number of factories that produce items like this.
It's been almost two years since it was installed. Extremely loud, and it sounds like you're having a hard time getting things done. The trim would drop for no apparent reason after about six trips. I contacted the company, and they said they couldn't stand behind their product because it was over a year old; this is a defective product that lasted a fraction of the time the OEM part did. It is highly recommended that you spend the extra money and purchase OEM.
I used a 60" piece of 3/16 brake line and a flair to flair fitting to bypass the reverse lock where this pump has one internal, but it was simple and it went right on the quicksilver out drive and works perfectly. My reverse lock was leaking, or I'd just forgotten about it because I didn't need the brake line. The pump is powerful and moves quickly and smoothly.
I bought a stainless bracket separately and replaced it with ease in my 2100 Maxum SR with Mercruuser Alpa I Gen 2 outdrive. I only wish that this pump had a stainless bracket as an option.
Replaced an old Prestolite pump as part of a Merc 898 Sterndrive; at first, I was concerned, but then I noticed that the two fittings could be swapped out with the two fittings included in the package. The other two fittings were flared like my old Merc ones. There is plenty of extra wire, it is simple to install, and it performs far better than the old pump.
