Great Bend Manufacturing was bought out by Bush Hog about 10 to 15 years ago. If I remember correctly, the manufacturing plant is in Kentucky somewhere and the parts are in Selma,Alabama. If you can not find the phone number on the internet, repost a message and I will get it for you tomorrow. I have it at work because I get 1 or 2 calls a month wanting parts. I would be very suprised if they still have the paint color and decals anymore. All the loaders I have seen lately have the Bushog lables on them.

That's interesting. The Alamo group owns a whole bunch of companies, Bush Hog being one, but not Woods. So I'm wondering if some company provides many of them with cylinders, and your kits were mis labeled?
