Hi C-Brats

We tried to install our 12"x12" Bennett Trim Tabs today but the hydraulic cylinders wont fit. Crying or Very sad
It seems they are to long for the c-dory 22.
The cylinders we became have 4 rings on the bottom , do we need the 3 ring (shorter) version Confused
Any help would be very nice.

Regards from kalkaska , MI

Chris

I don't know about the ring thingy, but the 10x12 (120) fit fine.

I just looked in your photo album and those sure don't look like Bennet hydaulic cylinders to me...is that an electric wire comming out of the one pictured...like maybe Lanco Electric Tabs?

Hi Mike & Judy

No, they are Bennett trim tabs with the additional Trim Tab Indicator !
The cable is from the trim tab indicator !!

When you install the trim tab indicator you become a new
top for the cylinders ! (take a look at the new pictures in my album)

Bennett has two versions of cylinders, one with 4 rings on the bottom and one with 3 rings on the bottom !

Regards Chris
