I havee 2 ford tractors. Both have history of idiot problems. One is a 70s tw 30 with a hga12033 steering cylinder that was taken off and dissasembled. Parts were lost and it is no longer servicable. The other tractor is a 70s 80s 5610 also with hGA???? model steering cylinger still in the tractor. These are both Ross hydraglide cylinders.
What would the problem be if I put the cylinder from the smaller tractor into the bigger tractor assuming all the components are functional?
 
Length, end-to-end, and stroke would need to be the same or else you wouldn't have the same range of steering.
 
That would not be a problem. Mostly I need the tw 30 as functional as possible to sell it. The 5610 needs to much work for me t o do anything
with. If the steering limitation is all it would do I can live with that and tell the buyer what he needs to properly fix it.
 
They should both have 1100 psi pumps so the seals in the 5610 cylinder should be up to the task on the TW30.

Only other thing I can think of is if the diameters are different by a large amount then one cylinder would move faster or slower than the other.
