As many of you know, I am building a new firerwood hauler. I salvaged an old bent hyd cylinder off a wood spliter that I built back in early 70s. Rails on I beam wore out and wedge came off and bent the rod. The 4"x3'cyl has been setting in the woodshed of the saphouse for better part of 20yrs. Dad also made some repairs on the end of the rod when the clevis pin slid partway out. and he tweeked the relief valve pressure up a bit with the pto pump that he installed. which forced the snapring gland a bit on the barrel end. I brought it back to the shop and after some soaking with PB blaster and some agressive blows on an angle iron against the cap in the cyl barrel I was able to move the cap, and remove the snapring. Drove it down further into barrow and took a wire brush on my corded drill and cleaned the rust inside the bore above the cap so I could pull the cylinder apart. Ended up hooking the base of the cyl to blade of my trackhoe and the rod to the boom and finaly it came apart. Put the rod in my 20yr old HF pipe bender and straightened the rod. Still need to adress a rust ring around the rod where it sat and rusted for years. Thinking a good cleaning with wire wheel and some JB weld to fill the pock mark. Loren
