Trying to find Gehl PN#: 600467 and 602255

mongoosetoo · Jul 10, 2022

Like the title states, trying to find two seal kits for a Gehl HL2500 Skidsteer Tilt cylinders. Cylinder look like 12" x 2" bore (almost 3" O.D.). Part numbers in manual Seal Kit 600467 and 602255. I'd like to find 2 of each part number. Not sure which cylinder I have, but in the past these kind of seals usually aren't going to break the bank.

Please let me know if you have a source, or if you are selling price with shipping to 43031.

Thanks.

Where have you checked (meaning called or email direct, not just look at website info)? Baum Hydraulics, German Bliss are a couple to check with. Have rod diameter and stroke available when you contact places.

Almost 3" OD cylinder barrel, should be about 2.5" bore. I doubt those cylinders would have 1/4" thick walls.

The Parts Depot returns both those numbers. No idea of price. You'll have to go through a dealer to order them. Most any brand of dealer can
order short line parts from there PROVIDED they have an account with them.

Take the cylinders to any good cylinder repair place and they will fix them. Probable cheaper than the seals from a dealer.

Pulled them off the machine and cleaned them up. They are 2.5" ID, 8 inch stroke. Retracted 17", extended 25" with swivel ball on both ends.

I'd like to replace them for their age (45+), but there appears to be a worldwide shortage on 2.5x8 swivel ball end welded cylinders.

Magister Part Number: WSE2.5x8[/b:805b04c58f] seems to be a close fit, but from the two times I have ordered them and had money refunded (NorthernHydraulics.com & discounthydraulichose.com), it sounds like they are coming from Ukraine. So that's a no-go for who knows how long.

Anyone have a source? Amazon is sold out of similar cylinders, and ebay is a dead end too.

Am willing to do that, but I was a hydraulics specialist in the Air Force for a couple decades - I can do it if I can find parts. If not, I will take them to someone, but I'd like to try to find parts first. Also considering replacing them, but see my other reply - they are hard to find.

I have to believe you can find the parts. However, you may need to disassemble them to see and measure the sealing parts in them if you don't find a kit.

Have you tried Baum?

Thanks. I gave up and found a local guy who rebuild cylinders all day long. He just measures the bore and grooves and orders his own o-rings. Should be done in about a week. Thanks for your assistance.
