I have a Deere 6500 sprayer and it still has the X ford boom on it. The one side lift cylinder always seeped a little oil and the side developed a major leak towards the end of last season. Well Son and I took it apart awhile back to see if we could fix it. The seal was out of one and the other one had rubbed a hole in the side. They are one way cylinders and believe it or not the make a repair kit for them but you have to cut them apart and weld them back together. New cylinders are $431 apiece at Deere ------so we checked around and found ones at surplus center for $49.95. Only trouble is Deere has 9 in. stroke and new ones have a 10 in. So we changed the way they mount. Had to reduce new ones pin holes from 1 in. to 1/2 with bushings and spacers and make new mounting ears. Not to proud of my welds, but it was not a good place to weld...Tee

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
