rrlund: You misread my intentions. I am not interested in selling the Oliver tractor. I will not bet my serious farming on anything that has AGCO supplied parts. The Sunflower finisher and the Oliver 1655 are the only AGCO supplied parts I will need.
As for used I tried that route first. I assumed the piston was the trouble. My Uncle had a four bottom fully mounted plow on this tractor. He hit a hole with the plow up. It broke the top link and after that the three point hunted. So I kind of assumed trouble in the piston/seals. I looked at the two local salvage yards yards and the ones they had where all scored on the sides. My time is worth something too. The new one was only $40 more than I was being asked for the used ones plus shipping. I needed the gaskets and seal kit anyway so I just thought buy all new and save me time looking for a good used one.
As for the age of the tractor. It is a 1975 model. That is not old. I am sure that piston is used on more models that just the 1655. So it is not rare. You say you have a used one on hand. So it seems like a common part.
I know I can have the same lift piston out of a 1975 JD tractor in my hand the NEXT DAY!!!! If I am willing to wait 2 days I can have it without any additional freight charges.
Around here parts availability is JD 1-2 days, CIH 2-3 days an AGCO 3-4 days if you need it and the dealership does not have it.

Today's Featured Article - Fordson Model N: Field Service Operations and Lubrication - by Anthony West. The daily or weekly servicing of any vehicle is of the utmost importance, and in days gone by when our favorite tractors were doing an important and Commercially vital job on the farm, these service operations would make a major difference to the running costs and economy of the farm. This being so, it surprises me to see how many enthusiasts attending rallies, shows etc, seem to be unaware of the importance of this constant attention. Possibly the modern machine with its 6,000 mile or even once
