Bennett Lenco To Bolt Conversion Kit

The Bennett Lenco To Bolt Conversion Kit bridges the gap between two proven trim tab mounting systems, allowing boaters to retrofit their Bennett Lenco-equipped vessels with modern bolt-down hardware. If you're upgrading a boat's trim and tilt system or replacing worn lenco linkages, this conversion kit eliminates the need for complete system replacement, preserving your existing Bennett trim tabs while switching to a more robust, corrosion-resistant bolt connection architecture. This is essential for marine operators who demand reliability in saltwater and freshwater environments without the downtime of a full system overhaul.

Engineered by Bennett Trim Tabs, a leader in marine hydraulic control systems, this conversion kit features precision-machined components that convert legacy lenco pin-and-bracket assemblies into bolted mounts. The bolt-down design distributes loads more evenly across the transom and trim tab actuator assembly, reducing stress concentration points that lenco linkages sometimes exhibit under heavy deployment cycles. At 8 pounds, the kit is compact enough for straightforward installation, yet contains all fasteners, adapters, and hardware required for a complete transition. The bolted interface also provides superior corrosion resistance compared to traditional pin connections, particularly critical in saltwater applications where galvanic action accelerates wear.

This kit is ideal for restoration projects, fleet maintenance upgrades, and performance boaters operating in demanding offshore conditions. Installation pairs seamlessly with existing Bennett trim tab actuators and hydraulic systems—no new pump or control valve required. Before ordering, verify your boat's current trim tab model number and transom configuration to ensure compatibility with the lenco-to-bolt interface. Professional marine technicians and DIY builders alike appreciate this solution for extending the service life of quality trim systems while modernizing the mechanical connection method.
