Going to price a hydraulic cylinder for the 240 loader tomorrow.

Same tractor and loader where the hydraulic line failed . When the youngest son said “ I duh no” what happened . The line just blew “.
Going to price a hydraulic cylinder , out of curiosity.
Who knows if the rod is bent ?

I think I'd check old cylinder before getting all uppity!!

I can't see that the rod is bent in your picture. If you can't tell, I suggest disassembly and checking it before purchasing new.

Maybe it's me, but the rod looks fine, but the end tee looks twisted.
Like he may have banged into something tougher than the loader. May be able to heat it or cut off and re-weld.

I can't get prices to show on those cylinder numbers on the JD sites. My guess is either may be in the $1000 range.

If the rod is bent and the barrel is ok, you might be able to have a shop make a new rod for less. I have had that done for some cylinders.

I've had a shop bend it back or make a new one.

Was it the same line? Bad crimp?

Sure doesn’t look bent but it’s hard to tell
