I spent 5 years as a Sales Engineer a LONG time ago ('80s) and I was the only one that could rebuild the customer's air/hydraulic cylinders that we sold. 200psi oil max. 4 tie rod cylinders. There was no torque spec, so I "rang" the tie rods. Trick I learned helping the bike shop at Sears assemble bikes during the Christmas rush in the late '70s. They all "ring" the same note, they're all the same tightness. 😁

Considering the universal importance of hydraulic cylinders in today's world it is really commendable to show the steps in rebuilding these devices. Between your step-by-step explanations and the work that Kurtis (CEE Australia) shows many people will be better equipped to do this work. Thanks for your efforts to share your experience and expertise.

Did I hear you say you was in Alabama just haven't seen such a useful video like you go the extra mile to make from us Bama people thanks for teaching this one something new

[@macmac19800]

I've been following your channel for several years, I'm glad that your machine park is developing/upgrading. Nice to see Polish lathe chuck, greets from Poland to You and your great Wife 🙂

As always KZbin is the best school. Thank you!

I used to put the hard plastic piston seals in hot water for a few minutes. Softens them up for easy install.

Love the new content, Abom. Any day with a new video from you is a better day. I appreciate the meticulousness of your work and how much effort you put into the editing. It definitely isn’t an easy task.

[@dah61789dah]

Great video, thanks! I was able to buy a seal kit for my Ford tractor steering cylinder so I didn't have to measure seals.

[@theradioweyr]

Now show us one of those painful one's from John Deere where you have to use the disposable plastic tool ring thing to get the glands out. Was my first cylinder rebuild. Grrr.

[@ghostdog662]

Nicely done. I am glad they replaced that stuck solid cylinder. Breaking the spanner tool is no joke and is beyond tight.

Hey there mate, CRC seal company I used to have a training book from that company in the drawing office.

[@warrenjones744]

While not completely necessary, the seal squoosher tool Hercules and probably CRC sells is a nice tool for those pesky teflon piston seals. They are surprisingly well priced for what they are. I think I paid a little over $100 for mine a few years back. If you do cylinder repair regularly they are well worth it in my book especially for larger diameters. I am kinda surprised a tool lover like you does not have one Adam 😁 Cheers

I actually have a hydraulic log splitter that’s leaking, so this set of videos came in perfect timing for my project

[@neilsommers5916]

Adam, I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge on hydraulics. I’m getting ready to rebuild several cylinders on a boom lift and you just gave me the confidence to tackle it. Great looking new shop by the way!

[@geraldharkness8830]

watching you reseal those rams takes me back to my job in a agricultural engineers!

[@glenc90240]

Back in early '70s I rebuilt a number of landing gear struts on the F-4 Phantom ....

[@sashicapur4980]

Nice to see, you back to "real work" video, people like it.

[@bulletproofpepper2]

Thanks for sharing. Bought an older tractor fully expecting to have to dig into all the cylinders ,still no leaks. If I do need to I’m confident I can do it.
