So I am having a serious leakdown issue on the PT. Worse than normal. I also feel like my lifting capabilities are off by at least 30%.
This all said, does someone have directions to cleaning out the Lift Tilt Circuit? anyone have alink to a tear down video?
As a side note, wanted to gauge peoples interest in the following...
When I took my cylinder to the repair shop, the main tech said that the design was flawed. That the plunger should have another ring (it was either a whiper or an wear ring, can't remember) He said the design was old school and tended to fail quickly. I rebuild my steering cylinders every couple of years so I am thinking maybe it is time to have this shop machine me up some new plungers. Would anyone be interested in this (group buy?)
Not sure if this would apply to the 425 owners but I can get dimensions, It would probably be for the 1430 and 1850 crowd.
