[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 91612, member: 82"] I agree that when apart, they are very simple, yet some are murder to get open. The last one that i did battle with, i had to drill around the rod down into the bore of the cylinder, i went all the way around and used a chisel to bend the outer threded part into the void made from drilling. Thankfully it did collapse enough for me to use an air chisel to beat it so it would turn. They sure can put up a fight, but if you have the time and patience, you can generally win. The thing is, for commercial people, time vs cash does not always make sense. To pay a dealer to do the job would exceed the value of a new cylinder. [/QUOTE]
