Cylinder Kits
What do I need to know before getting seal kits for these cylinders? 1956 420C with Model 62 blade.

Re: Cylinder Kits
The kits have gone obsolete, but a good hyd shop will likely have what you need on hand. Only catch might be the leather cups, I think I have them on hand. Take the cylinders apart, and take all the pieces to a hyd shop and they should be able to match them up.

Re: Cylinder Kits
One way or the other, we will get it figured out. If you have no one there that you trust, I will start digging on this end and see what I can put together.

Re: Cylinder Kits
FWIW, I got all the parts for my 420 cylinder through a Deere construction dealer. I had to get the bulldozer blade parts sheets and that was all it took. Once I had the parts fro one cylinder (for $100.00 plus!!!) I took it all to a local hyd shop and he matched up enough stuff for the 2nd cylinder.

Re: Cylinder Kits
Spent a little time on the phone with one of my suppliers this week discussing this exact problem. Sounds like they will work with me to develop kits for the cylinders. I have to have the cylinder in question apart and at my place, but once done, they will keep the pertinent info in my file for future reference. Every time I do a different cylinder, now, will start building the database.
The first thing I am going to work on it stocking the leather cups for the rams. Just got in some for the hyd adjusters, working on them this week.
