Outdrive tilts up in reverse

I have a 1979 omc 230 outdrive and tilt does not hold. It will tilt up in reverse and also work its way down when tilted up. I suspect that clutch plates need replaced, but would like to confirm. Also I see that clutch assembly in tilt unit is not available. What can I do?

While it is possible that the clutch pack is faulty, it is rare

Before making any assumptions, you will need to start some disassembly

to inspect the components of the tilt system
