      Yes, you can disassemble and reassemble successfully. I’ve done it. Just be sure you don’t nick or scratch any of the seal surfaces. Seems to me some folks were using Rancho shock absorber boots without having to disassemble the cylinders. This was awhile back, and I don’t remember the tractor models.

        Find a big shop and give them a call with the sizes (metric measurements) they can ship the parts to you if they are able to cross them over or send them the cylinder should be cheaper than 350.

        I fixed it for you. You hit a weird key. Lol.

            Is there a product more specifically suited for this situation?

            Yes. http://www.cosmolinedirect.com/cosmoline-weathershed-industrial-grade-spray/

            I’ve had a lifetime of that stuff all over me and my clothes working almost excursively at General Motors dealerships. Their frames and sub-frames are dipped in it, and it’s mixed with black carbon to give it that “black framerail” look.

            You are not alone. Hahahaha. International trucks must have used the same stuff. I also worked for a shop that rebuilt and sold WWll army tank and truck components. Cosmoline was EVERYWHERE!

              I’ll guess there are no hydraulic shops within driving distance from you.

                Have you tried Surplus Center for seal kits?

                Or hydraulic cylinders? Just plug in your dimensions to see what they have.

                    Probably irrelevant, but I use a 68″ flail behind my 30 HP dozer through 6′ high scotch broom with no problems. You should have no problem with a 48″ flail.

                      Question about applying heat. The problem area is smack in the middle of the loader bracket. The pin courses through the bolt head. Would I not want to heat the bolt to try and expand it rather than heat the pin?

                      I think I’m getting a better mental picture of it now. The pin actually passes through the bolt head, which is threaded into some other part. No? Have you tried turning the bolt head to relieve the load on the pin?

                        ” try an inertia puller (slide hammer)”. Dang. Been using those for almost 50 years (even moved frame rails on a VW Rabbit with a ten pounder) but never heard the term “inertia puller” B-)

                        Hahahaha. That is the generic term for that type of tool because that is the type of force being applied. You are used to the colloquial term. I guess I’m just a generic type of guy. :wacko:
