[QUOTE="MattGunson, post: 122926, member: 22551"] This can be done assuming that the barrel doesn’t have any internal damage. I’d be removing the whole ram assembly then strip down on a bench. Gives you chance to clean any broken seal material out of the barrel and prevent further issues. Sounds like it is just the wiper seal breaking up but I’d replace the job lot whilst you are there. Capping the lines the prevent dirt ingress can be done with caps or any other method that prevents them getting dirt inside. No point over complicating the job. Make sure you clean the machine down first and then start work. I personally would have the boom raised and supported in a way the makes the ram accessible. Most importantly work safely don’t go under anything unsupported. [/QUOTE]
