[QUOTE="bobcatbrian, post: 36711, member: 2382"] I have an SGX60 stump grinder. I bought it used in november of 09. When i bought it i noticed when i let it sit for awhile all the hydo cylinders (3) developed play. I replaced the seals in two of them but it did not make a difference. I know there should not be play in the cylinder. By play i mean i can move the rod in and out a good half inch. I am wondering if there is something wrong in the control valve on the grinder. The cylinder that raises and lowers the boom and and the cylinder that moves the head in and out are the worst, they take most of the beating and vibration. I also replaced the bushings on the main swing post and welded up the the yolks for the cylinder pins. I think because it was a rental it got the crap beat out of it. Any suggestions? Thanks [/QUOTE]
