Howdy, Can I replace the rope type seals (?) on my OEM 1950 Case model DI with Lull front loader cylinder glands with V pack seals given they were the correct dimensions? Obviously the cylinders are dual action so the seals would have to be installed accordingly. I have not gotten any acceptable answers from vendors on this subject, and I reside far from any local civilization.

The cylinders gland seals now weep at low psi only and will hold 4000 psi for two (2) days before any leakdown. But I would like to be able to upgrade.
