Mornin" Dug, The F-10 has about the easiest cylinders there are for resealing; on the other hand, that F-11 is kind of a stinker because they work in both directions. However, it is a straight-ahead job, but you just have to keep your wits about you (thinking of oil flow)when you put it back together, as they have changed the design of the seal kit somewhat. If you are the mechanical sort, you can easily handle it; if not, haul it into a shop and they can swap "em out in a couple of hours for you. Also, if you are lucky enough to have the dead-head end of the cylinder mounted in the rear frame upright, you can disassemble it on the loader and leave that tube right where it is, just pulling the ram out the forward end. The early loaders mounted with the ram pushing backwards towards the tractor axle tho and in this case, the cylinder has to either be completely removed for repair or you have to drop it down where you can pull it out under the back of the tractor. Hope this helps, Allan
