convertible lift cylinders
« on: February 09, 2007, 05:24:47 AM »
Just for interest, is there a way to replace the upper seal on the 67-69 lift cylinders? I have a spare that I took apart and have the circlip/seal out for fun. Ths shaft end eye is too big and the piston sleeve is crimped .

No responses so i tried taking one apart. Guess what? You can renew the upper seals if you work with dental picks and have some time.

Remove the circlip, pry out the dust cap. Them remove the metal washer and plastic distance piece. this reveals the seal which can be poked out.
