According to one dealer list price of kit is about $50 for a SML36848 kit. Just wondering if these cylinders might also be used on other equipment and if a cross reference might exist with a less expensive alternative. Cylinder starting pouring oil out on down stroke this morning. I know I have seen very similar looking loaders on many different loaders and I would think this cylinder might be common.

You could go to a local hydraulic shop... but they generally want to do the work and that will be over 200. These cylinders just use standard vee packing and a large o-ring on the gland where it seals against the barrell... Rod [Reply]  [No Email]

They will have the parts on hand just bring your seals in and they will have them. I use them all the time. Also would take the piston and end cap of the cylinder with you for measuring. Very good people. They will also repair the whole cylinder for you. The even have chrome shafting and can make a new shaft for you. Check them out on the Web. Hope I have helped!

Many simple kits are now over $100 buy part number. Easiest way to save $$$ is to take the cylinder to a local hydraulics shop, or tear it down and order components from a place like Hercules. The 7210 loader was made for Ford by Schwartz (SMC) maybe you can source a kit from them. Hercules [Reply]  [No Email]
