Rebuild of a couple of hydraulic cylinders

[k0ua]

While this fella does not have a lot of training or experience in rebuilding hydraulic cylinders, he went ahead and did it anyway, including fixing some scratches in the one rod with a hot glue gun. Or as he puts it, a very hot glue gun. i found his presentation very informative and entertaining. The tractor is a Mahindra (pink paint version) but this should work out for anyone.

Great video. I think the repair he made should last a long time.
Good work!

Maybe Mahindras don't have part numbers for their cylinder parts (that just seems very odd to me), but my Kubota lists all the part numbers for components of the hydraulic cylinders on my BX. I know because I rebuilt the bucket curl cylinder last winter.
Maybe they use a supplier that uses generic cylinders from several sources and have no easy way way to track what type or manufacturer's cylinder is on their tractors.
Even 40 years ago when we had excavators, dozers and earthmovers, all those had parts diagrams with part numbers for all the hydraulic components.
