have tried to straighten it but it still leaks?

Is the leak on the actual tube or on one of the fittings?

Leaks from fitting at block. Around the tube.

Try tightening that hex nut on the a little bit more so it seats the ferrule inside better and see if it works.

I’ve tried that and it won’t budge anymore. I think a new ferrule might work, but can’t find that either.

Can you take all that metal stuff off and just put the hoses in each end like a normal cylinder?

That’s how my hydraulic top link is.

It's most likely metric tubing, the compression fittings on the valve are part of the valve cartridge so not really replaceable, I think there's an adaptor that will convert them to a common size but I haven't looked into it yet.

They make adapters to go from banjo to NPT. You could take everything off the cylinder and attach the hoses directly. You could also take that cylinder to a hydraulic shop, they might have a way to replace just the steel tube that has the leaking fitting.

Just need to know where to look.


It seems like they are out of a lot of things at this moment, but they are a source for the parts.
