i have a small pinhole in the inlet/exit pipe on a double acting steering cylinder. the pipe is made in place and is right next to the main cylinder. it leaks quite profusely and i have it off the tractor and have cleaned the area. there are no seals or gaskets in this small pipe and my question is, does the entire cylinder have to be taken apart before this can be welded or brazed? it is away from the main cylinder, but i'm not sure if torch heat will affect the seals inside the cylinder and i'm not entirely sure i can get all the fluid out of the main cylinder. most of the fluid ran out when the steering cylinder hoses were removed. would brazing be strong enough to hold about 2100 lbs hydraulic pressure or would it have to be electric welded or just junked? new steering cylinder for this JD870 compact is more than $600 so i trying to find a less expensive fix? any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
