Gannon Box Blade with hydraulic rippers

[murray918]

I just bought a Gannon HD-215LR box blade and the hydraulic cylinder wasn't attached and didn't come with it. I was able to find the part number through Woods/Gannon 13534 for the hydraulic cylinder. I'm just not wanting to pay $500.00 for it. I was wondering if someone could give me the specs of the cylinder. Bore, stroke and retracted length and any other info I might need to try to match it to another hydraulic cylinder that might be a bunch cheaper. *******The hydraulic cylinder is suppose to be the same cylinder that Woods still uses on the 4x2 and 4x4 box blades. None of he dealers have or will give me the specs******

Thanks a bunch

I just paid $300 for a standard generic tisco hydraulic top link just for comparison. Looks like it is probably the same cylinder as the HD24488HSD i just picked up I'll try and look at mine and see if i can figure out bore and stroke. The manual for mine list the cylinder as 13534-1

If your manual list the cylinder as 13534 that should be the same cylinder. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Mine is the exact same with the addition of -1 13534-1 I'll take some measurements and some pictures for you that whey you might be able to determine if its close enough

The Woods/Gannon website shows the hydraulic cylinder as a 13534-1 and the 13534 as a cylinder rebuild kit. Please forward info where you bought the cylinder. Thanks

Measured the minimum length it's between 14.125" and 14.25" center to center.

17.75" long at max length
Not sure if the stroke is any longer but that's the max I can extend it while it's attached
The cylinder body is 8.5" long

Yes that is the cylinder that I need. Will you please send me the info where you got it.

It came with the box scrapper just bought the whole box. I thought you were looking for dimensions.
Sorry maybe my post was not clear. I paid $300 for a generic top link cylinder for use a a toplink. Which I bought at the same time as the box scrapper. My point would be $500 is probably not totally unrealistic for a cylinder that is so specialized.

Sorry for the confusion

I guess I jumped the gun. Yes I was wanting the measurements and I guess I hoped that you bought it separately at a cheaper price than $500.00. I'm going to take those measurements and try to find a off brand replacement.

Dave, would you please get the width at the bottom between the clevis where the pin goes through the cylinder rod end? That and the distance between the clevis on the top end of the cylinder.

Any chance that you would post a picture or 2 of your Tisco top link? Always good to see what the competition offers.

Murry918, looks like the cylinder and hose kit will run $275+ shipping costs.
