Does anyone know where I can get some new seals for the hydraulic jacks please? Any help appreciated.
Hi welcome to the forum the seals in the pistons are not avalible the piston seals are made from a fabric leather or something I used a off the shelf seal that fit in the groove I used them in the 2 outer grooves leaving the the center seal in
the shaft seals are also not a standard size I think they are 1 1/4 x 2 1/8 cheveron seals I took the closest size with the corect inner and turned the od to fit in the bore on my lathe it was a pain but it worked no leaks
how are your rods and caps mine were junk I got chrome 1 1/4 rod stock from a local shop and cut the ends off my rods and welded them on to the new rods that is after turning new theads on the piston ends
I also put bushings in my caps they had 1/8 of slop in them
I will find the seal numberd and post them thanx ken
