So tomorrow I am going to adapt a 1.5" cylinder to my PT. It is a huge honker compared to my original. I got it off of Ebay new for $65. It looks identical to a Chief I was looking at.
The downside is that the body of the cylinder is 2" longer than the PT. I am going to hope that extending the tilt dump rod will accomodate this issue, but it could be problematic.
Also I have to cut off the ends of this cylinder and weld on ones from my PT or other source.
If this fails, I will have a custom cylinder made.
Will snap pix of tomorrows fiasco.
