Replacing both at the same service avoids a repeat job shortly after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What causes trim cylinder failure on SX-A\/DPS drives?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The most common causes are corrosion on the piston rod (especially in saltwater environments), seal wear from age or contaminated hydraulic fluid, and physical damage to the rod or fittings. Regular anode service and keeping the hydraulic fluid clean extend cylinder life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eParts Desk Insights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three identification points for this part are starboard side, 52° tilt, and SX-A\/DPS-A\/DPS-B drive family. Its mirror-image port cylinder is 22187385 — checking the cylinder side before ordering avoids one of the most common fitment errors with this trim system. If a customer is replacing one cylinder due to a leak, recommend inspecting the port cylinder (22187385) at the same time. Also check the trim hoses and hydraulic fittings while the drive is apart — a cylinder replacement is a good opportunity to address any hose wear before it becomes the next service call.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563991433252,"sku":"22187386","price":1024.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/7f217938-9ca7-4e6e-bff9-a00e1fc1fb97v.png?v=1787452602","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/volvo-280","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
