: : : I recently looked at a backhoe attachment for my : : 8N which had been sitting in a field for a couple : : of years. The hydraulic cylinders had a light coat : : of rust on their output shafts. Does this mean the : : cylinders are history or can they be cleaned up? : : Thanks : : : Here's what I'd do: If you can sand them back to brite and clean with 400 or 600 wet or dry sandpaper and WD40 , then they will be ok . wipe the rods with lite oil before drawing them into the cylinders . If they have pits that you can catch your fingernail on , they are no good and must be replaced Cyrus
