[QUOTE="SkidRoe, post: 93171, member: 3290"] A lot of times this is done to reduce the stroke of a standard cylinder to match the stroke required for a specific application. Another reason is to increase the bending strength of the cylinder by increasing the distance between gland and the piston. The spacer does show up in the parts manual as a factory fitted part, p/n 6514501. Seems weird to do this as an OEM, but maybe it was required to make the lift geometry work, overcome a strength issue or prevent a stability issue from the boom over travelling. HTH - SR [/QUOTE]
