Picked up the stick cylinder for my backhoe today.
I'm quite surprised it wasn't gold plated! Here's
a breakdown of the costs to repair. It is a 4"
bore by 34" stroke Cat cylinder.
Machining 1 1/2 hours @ $152/hr.
Drilling out and tapping rod for larger bolt and
boring piston for larger bolt
Machining 1 1/2 hours @ $152/hr
Honing barrel
Straighten and polish rod $199.95
Seals and wear ring etc. $109.93
Labor 3 hours @ $142/hr
Shop supplies $22.00
Tax $60.69
Total $1274.57
And you think you pay a lot for repairs...OUCH!
