Can this cylinder be repaired ?

Thanks I' ll give that a try and get back to ya'll

Ok I got it apart. I removed the screw and tapped the gland into the cylinder with a block of and hammer and pryed the retaining ring out.
I then started the splitter up and used the hydraulics to push the gland out as far as it would go.
I had to use a come along and big soft blow hammer againts the pin I had in the rod to get it fully extracted.
Now I need a good source to identify and buy a kit for the seals & O-rings

There are a bunch of kits online.....what is the bore size and rod size?
My old Speeco manual shows these numbers for seal kits:
HC390120F for the 4" x 24 cyl
HC390171 for the 4.5" x 24 cyl
HC390126 for the 5" x 24 cyl

I believe you remove that bolt and then push that rod gland assembly back into the cylinder a ways to expose the retaining ring.

Correct. The only reason I am going to read beyond this point is to see what others think should be done. I have rebuilt tons of this type of cylinder

Did you forget to set your alarm? You're about 10 days too late.

Yeah, I get those too if I haven't been back to the Forum in a few days. They're always for old threads. I think they're just making sure we're still above ground.

Being on the sunny side of the grass is always a plus. I usually get an update from the forum about once a week , and I read thru it . When I see an interesting post I sometimes post. I spent many years on the road as a mechanic for commercial and industrial equipment and some of the responses to some of the questions can be very entertaining.
