Need help removing 383 4wd steering cylinder.
It’s a double shaft cylinder. It looks as though there are four large Allen bolts holding it to the axle. I have 2 repair manuals and neither of them show the setup I have.I probably can't do much from here, but what sort of help are you hoping for?
Is it a double shaft style cylinder with a ball joint on each side or just a single cylinder on one side. Parts book shows both types.
This looks like the setup on my tractor. I was going to remove the cylinder from the machine and hone & repack. Are you saying that it’s better done leaving on the axle?If you're talking about the center mount cylinder and want to reseal, just unscrew the tierods, remove the gland locking wires and remove the glands, extract the rod/piston and reseal.
