[QUOTE="Dave1234, post: 134270, member: 23099"] Your description "scraping badly when being pulled out of the cylinder" suggests to me grit entering from through a failed wiper seal on the rod, more than from within the hyd system, but the scratches on the piston say a lot of grit got past the piston and thence secondarily throughout the hyd system from both sides. I wouldn't be surprised if the previous owner also rebuilt the cylinder to sell it, after ignoring needed maintenance for a long time. It got it out the door, but not very far after that. [/QUOTE]
