Is it your 1987 140 HP? If its an 87' then it won't work. In the early to late 70's the vertical main pivot shaft is smaller making it impossible to mount the whole trim and tilt bracket(assembly) on my motor. It creates slop in the bracket and the motor. And the 87' main pivot shaft does bolt to my mid section and also has bigger spline also. It kinda hard for me to explain. The motor came off a seadrive bracket,I used the 78' main vertical pivot shaft and there was slop in the motor but it was in fresh water. I've lost my original tilt trim assembly after I took it of and Mounted it to the seadrive bracket. I need the whole assembly (trim and tilt,transom bracket and all for my year.I re- attached some pics. The swivel assembly pictured is a 87' the other picture is of the main or (pivot shaft) Im speaking of.They changed the size of the bracket tube and swivel shaft diameter (the height is perfect) at some point after my 1978 135hp motor.
