    trim leaking at 2 intermediate shafts

    01 optimax 225. Leaked after winter storage. Replaced the trim o rings and dust shield/caps. Rebleed hyrdo system. No leaks on first fishing trip. Second trip it leaks.

    Any clues???

    U guys think the trim unit is just garbage....any way to salvage/fix???

    BTW the 2 trim rods aren't scuffed up....clean as a whistle.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Do you have a picture that depicts the leakage?
