This isn"t strictly a Farmall question - the cylinder is who-knows-what - but it"s mounted on an H.
The cylinder froze up and wouldn"t extend so I switched the hose and breather and was then able to force the rod back out. Pushing the rod back in by hand, I felt some metal-on-metal scraping towards the bottom of its travel so, something"s messed up in there.

A friend of mine and I (who are used to the cylinders which disassemble this way) tried forcing the top plate down with a clamp and by whacking on it with a block of wood and a five-pound hammer. It didn"t budge. Do I just need to hook a thin cold chisel under the end of the wire and then just continue working that or a flathead screwdriver around to pry it out that way?
This is the first time I"m attempting to upload a series of pictures so, you may need to bear with me until I get it right.
