Your options
- When your unit fails you have usually 3 options,
Option 1
- Buy a new unit for a excessive amount of money and depending on what motor you have and how old it may not be available.
Option 2
- Find a used unit gamble on it working properly, many of these used units floating around on eBay and at shops are pulled off junk motors and they tend to be only good as cores with no real life left in them and you would be spending money on something that won’t give you any value for your money.
Option 3
- Send your unit to Five Star Marine and have it rebuilt by the
professionals
. We offer a
Full 2 Year Warranty
on all of our rebuilds. We do the highest quality work in this field hands down. Every unit goes a threw a
Full Remanufacturing Process that will outlast a New Unit. Using only the highest quality Seals, Fluids & Sealants available.
Life Expectancy
-Your standard trim unit is only
designed to last 10-15 Years
after that the manufactures are hoping to sell you a new unit if not sell you the same junky seals they used the first time that failed.
A properly Rebuilt unit from Five Star Marine should last 20-30 Years depending on your environment in which you run the boat.
We Are The Best In The Business For Trim Units
-We have been specialized in this field for years and have made a great name for ourselves in the marine community from
California to New York, Jamaica to Alaska, Hawaii to Norway
we’ve helped boaters from all over the globe. Trim and Tilt units are very complicated pieces of equipment and anyone with a spanner wrench can change a seal but thats just a patch job. It is very hard for your local shop to properly clean and service the internals of these units and both polish everything inside and out to insure a long life.
We believe repairs should only be done once and thats our goal.
You Are Our Customer
- We work for you and although we can’t make everyone happy its our mission to provide you with the
best customer service & value for your money we try our very best to solve the most difficult issues and give the best technical support available over the phone anytime
. If we can’t fix your unit we will help find you a core/used unit or get you the best wholesale price on a new unit through our connections.
Quality Seals-
We use our own seals manufactured to our specific specifications instead of the OEM, the manufactures are great but they aren’t stupid and they have shareholders to please and planned obsolescence is in full effect when it comes to trim units.
We have manufactured seals with better sealing properties and much better Oxidation, UV, Fuel & Chemical resistance. Materials like Viton and High Grade Urethanes
,
these materials can cost up to 15 times more than standard OEM seals
but is a drop in the bucket compared to the overall cost of these units. We do not cut corners and we are proud to break the viscous cycle by taking the customers side and not short sided profit.
3 Stage Buffing Process-
A seal is only as good as the surface it rides on
, to often to we see sand paper scratches on the thin chrome plating of these rams. Even surface pitting can be buffed out and smoothed but we have a more subtle approach that makes for a mirror finish but can only be achieved by heavy duty buffing machines. We have several of them the
first stage rounds out any sharp imperfections and levels the surface smoother than the OEM
,
the second is a polishing stage to get a good shine and reduce the ability for anything to stick to the ram
.
The final stage is what gives it that mirror like shine and makes it very difficult for anything to stick to it so when its retracted inward the wiper cleans the ram before it can cause damage to the internal seal.
A polished used ram will be much better than a new ram as the manufactures don’t take the time to level the lathe machine marks before it is thinly chromed.
A True Clean Build-
These units are
built in a clean area
separate from where they are taken apart and prepped and polished this way no contaminates are present to cause a failure. These units are self contained units with a integrated valve body and reservoir they could be most compared to a
transmission and building them in a clean environment free of contaminates is essential for a long life and fewer issues.
Leak Down Issues-
We Specialize in fixing leak down issues and have the special tooling to bore and polish cylinders and refit for oversized seals. We also have a great knowledge of the internal workings and have the ability to grind and reseat valves to insure a good seal internally.
Shipping Instructions-
UPS is the most reliable and we have a UPS Hub next to our shop. We keep a very close relationship with all the shipping companies as we get deliveries everyday. Please pack the unit properly so it gets to us in one piece. You do not have to drain the fluid from the unit let us do that and properly dispose of it. If your unit is leaking everywhere double bag it in trash bags.
Shipping Address-
Five Star Marine At 6902 Industrial Ave, Port Richey, FL 34668
Turn around time-
2-5 Business days from when after we receive your unit. Durning the spring and summer you can guarantee we are slammed and will need 5 days to properly get your unit rebuilt and turned around to you purely due to high volume.
We keep mostly everything we can in stock so parts availability normally is not a issue.
Warranty-
All of our units come with a
Full 2 Year Warranty
and
we save all your information in our system indefinitely
.
We stand behind our work %100 that way you have a piece of mind and someone you can count on.
We have very few issues because of the process we have developed to ensure all units are properly rebuilt and leak and pressure tested before shipment.
Extra Parts-
Extra parts like Valve Bodies, Manifolds, Electric Motors, Rams, End Caps, Manual Release Valves, etc are not included but we do not upcharge on any additional parts. We make our money on the flat rate of the rebuild whatever our cheapest price is we can find threw our wholesale avenues we will pass the savings onto you.
We also keep hundreds of parts units for this very reason
as not all parts are available at reasonable prices. Our goal is to make this as cost effect as possible to keep the transaction smooth and as fair as possible.
Salt Water-
We are based in Florida (Salt Water Heaven) and Pulling your unit apart without breaking it is a art all on its own. We are extremely skilled at getting salt water units apart in one piece, so this is not a issue for us. We also have have industrial equipment to help Heat & Drill and Tap broken bolts etc.
Painting & Corrosion Protection-
We do not rattle can units as that causes more issues than it solves cosmetically. We offer a Sand Blasting and Epoxy coating service where we blast your unit to bare metal and built it back up with a
Industrial Grade Epoxy Primer
. This process is mostly for
Boat Owners who keep the boat in the water for extended periods of time and are experiencing corrosion problems.
This special coating is applied very thick to help fully insulate the unit from any contact with the water then top coated with enamel or Lacquer to match your factory colors. The cost of this process is a flat rate of 0 and should seriously be considered if you keep your boat in the water. For basic corrosion protection we recommend Heavy Duty Corrosion Inhibitor Made by CRC this is a very thick and waxy substance that works very well.
