    Hey, Bobcat guys, cylinders

    They don't look like Bobcat cylinders. The white one looks like a Case backhoe swing cylinder.

    Need help with packing Ford 19-97 Cylinders

    Wrong seal kit. Old seals are leather piston cups, new is v-packing. Where did you buy the seals? Need to return and get correct parts.

    John deere 60 hydraulics

    Factory pressure on a 60 was 850-900 psi for an early one on up to 1100-1200 psi for a late model. You can adjust the relief pressure by adding shims to the relief. The easiest thing to do is put a bigger cylinder on the mower.

    cylinder identification

    Those are off of a disk. If you look through the holes you'll see a big spring inside for the flex.

    821 Power Steering Cylinder

    Only the outer tube, I put them in a lathe and part them off. A good hydraulic shop should be able to get you new cast iron piston rings, they were never available from Ford. They expected you to buy new cylinders if truly bad on the inside. Not to discourage you but this job is precise, can't...

    821 Power Steering Cylinder

    The inner piston seals are cast iron rings, not rubber seals. The cylinder is made with a tube within a tube. If your going to cut apart I would cutoff the base end, not the rod end. Also I would not braze it back together, I would weld. I have done dozens of these mainly to replace a broken...

    Do SK tools have a lifetime warranty?

    They do, but good luck. They were bought out recently by a Chinese company and moved locations.

    HP requirements for cultivator

    I think the biggest problem will be lifting it. An 8 row on that size tractor is a lot of weight. I used a brillion 6 row on a AC 6080 and it made the front end light.

    4010 vs 730

    My father in law's uncle already had a 720 diesel when he traded an off brand older tractor on a new 3010 diesel. He said the only thing good about the 3010 was comfort and layout of controls. Otherwise the 720 was better. Better fuel economy, better power.

    Hauling w/ 2014 F150 V6 Eco boost

    I had that exact truck. I put 140,000 miles on it. Had excellent power for towing and the load your stating is well within range. Be sure to change sparkplugs according to book otherwise you'll have misfire problems and codes.

    Air Impact wrench

    The hammers are junk. Wasn't in warranty anymore so bought the HF. I use an impact a lot, more in one day than your average user in a month. I also use 180 psi, like another poster said 90 psi isn't good enough. Like I said most air tools are made offshore, I don't need mine to say IR it HF...

    Air Impact wrench

    I own and operate an ag/heavy commercial repair shop. Have used about every brand of air tool available. For impacts always tried to use IR. The last IR I bought was a couple of years ago top tier titanium lasted 6 months, was not happy. My old IR 231c's last 2-3 years with heavy use. Fast...
