#75598-22300 KIT, SEAL

Warm the internal seals. Get them darn hot so you can fit them to the inside fittings.

I can't say anything about installation since I had it done for me at a local shop. But one important thing I learned about disconnecting and removing the cylinder before taking it to be worked on: Get some 1/2 inch Tygon tubing and slip it over the hose fittings on the cylinder. Route the tubing to a collection vessel, then cycle the cylinder manually a couple of times. Otherwise you're going to have hydraulic fluid sprayed all over the place! You might even be able to reuse the fluid you collect, that's up to you. Before delivering the cylinder to be worked on, cut some one inch pieces of Tygon tubing and thread them over the hose fittings on the cylinder to protect the threads and mating surfaces while the cylinder is being worked on. For my BT600 I had to add 3.5 quarts of Super UDT2 to my BX23 after reinstalling two repaired stabilizer cylinders.

Loosen and tighten gland nut with cylinder pined to the implant. This way you don't need a large vise to hold the cylinder. Purchase these two tools: Hydraulic Piston Rod Seal Installation Tools and Adjustable Gland Nut Wrench. They make the job much easier. Play close attention to the orientation of the gland nut rod seals large diameter go to the oil side.
