I'm rebuilding the lift cylinders on a John Deere tractor. I'm running into a problem getting the new seals to slide inside the cylinder housing. Being new, they are a larger diameter than the old seals that came out. I tried compressing them with a piston ring compressor and I also tried a plastic hammer and tapping them down as I worked my way around. Granted, I have a cheap ring compressor.
Just wondering if anyone has any tips?
