My B219 loader seals were leaking so I bought the seal kits. I had previously replaced the seals on one of the lift cylinders and all was good. This time I needed to replace;ace the seals on the two bucket cylinders. However, I just can't loosen the nut! I'm afraid I will break or twist the whole shaft. I've read about Loctite being used and seen crazy YouTube videos with acetylene torches heating up the nut. Is there a trick here? I assume they are "normal" right hand threads? Should I just take them to a hydraulic shop and have them loosen the nuts. I can't see why they need to be so tight. Thanks for any clues.
