350 dozer w/6 way blade (hyd. cylinder problem)
I took left hyd arm off to put in new seal kit. Well, the cyl. has been worked on before and has a slight curve in the arm. New cyl. kit would not last w/o having a straight arm.
Where could I find a replacement (cyl. only or cyl. and casing)?

Thanks Kenp for the information. I've looked on some of the sites and able to replace the spline and other parts. I don't know why I didn't think of that before I placed my 911. It's tuff when you get 70....senior brain freeze. Thanks again.
A good hydraulic cylinder rebuild shop can straighten the rod of a cylinder assembly. Do a search on the internet for "hydraulic cylinder rebuilder" and include your town and state in the search criteria and I'll bet you will find a place that does it.
I know because I bent the lift cylinder rod on a borrowed Chevy 30 series dump truck. A new cylinder was TOO expensive. I went to Cook Brother's in Binghamton, NY. They sent the cylinder assembly to a rebuilder in Buffalo, NY (I don't have the name and address anymore). The straightend the rod, put new seals in the cylinder assembly, and it cost UNDER $200! Needless to say, I dodged an EXPENSIVE situation!
