At one time, Long Lane Tractor offered row crop cylinder rebuilds. Here's their website, which describes their current business as limited to parts.
https://www.lltractor.com
You can give them a call at 717-367-8610 and see what they say.

Thanks Kirk, I had the rod on a 960 replaced maybe 15 years ago. The cutting and welding was fairly expensive. On another one I took the valve apart and took care of some problems, but I din't have a tube problem like grandpa Love did. There is a fellow who posts infrequently who was getting set up to rebuild them six months ago and posted again about six weeks ago.

check out this thread - https://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/viewtopic.php?t=1388974
I had a cylinder rebuilt - I appears to be done very well, but I have not installed it yet - be aware that you lose the stock appearance, if that is important - you also gain the capability to disassemble/rebuild
if you search eBay for 'Ford Row Crop Tractor 901 power steering cylinder rebuilt' you'll find a remanufactured unit - I don't know anything about these other than what's in the listing

I'll be needing your services in the near future. I just fixed my row crop steering box and have some other work to do before I get to my cylinder.

mschoff, Welcome to YT. You may want to go to the top of the Ford forum and hit the "new topic" button and start a new shout out to Bob. Many guys here are on classic view where the old threads don't bump up so they won't see a post added to an old thread.
