[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 19665, member: 782"] I don't own a 743 , I repair equipment , talk to your local dealer parts department , the length from the rod end of the casing to the welded fitting is one way to figure what you got , another is the discription of the base end of the cylinders pin mounting hole , another style has the tube going to the base end welded to the tube and is not removable , I do know that some parts will mix match and cause a problem , there is a gland nut( head) which is about an inch and 1/2 longer and will screw into other cylinders but it would shorten the stroke not make it longer --------I have noticed that over extending the tilt cylinder is a problem with the 743 , there was stops on the boom end that helped that from happening and I have seen a bunch of machines that don't have it , also I find that worn out bobtach pin bushing /weldments add to that problem , when you reseal your cylinder you could install a sleeve over the chrome rod inside the cylinder which would limit the travel , to over extend can bent the chrome rod [/QUOTE]
