Well the machine is sort of a fixer upper (the only reason it was priced low enough for me to buy it). 2 bad cyl’s on the hoe, multiple cracks in the backhoe and generally just behind on maintenance. Due for all new fluids and filters. Needless to say I’m on a budget and I’m just all around cheap to begin with. I called cat about the cyl’s and they are no longer available. Looked around a bit and a used one is around 1000$-14000$. I thought about just replacing the barrel on mine but the honed tubing is sold by the inch and a 48” piece was more expensive than just buying a total new cyl from prince. Plus I would have to cut threads into it to screw my packing into which would not be cheap. So that is why I bought a utility cyl for around 330$. If you know of a hydraulic shop that can re-barrel a cyl affordably I’m all ears because I still have the bucket cyl to do. The previous owner couldn’t get the packing gland to unscrew so he took a torch to it and cut the cyl apart around the rod.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
