Thanks – now back to the Johnson – the seller says it has working trim and tilt – could that have been added later?
Yes, the trim tilt could be easily added at any time….Be sure to get the PTT wiring harness/junction box for it though, might still be in the boat the engine came off of…
There were aftermarket tilt/trim units back then too – also cheaper models that tilted, but didn’t have the strength to trim. A friend of mine had one of those tilt-only aftermarket units added to an 85 HP back in the early 1970s.

if the one has a ram between the brackets thats attached to the swivel along with two smaller ones either side, the smaller ones are trim and the larger in the center is the tilt.
