Sammy 89 #1 Posted February 12, 2021 Well this is a big one considering it just happened today. I was using my 2nd 69 gt14 and the lift cylinder seems to be leaking a pretty significant amount. I don’t know how to rebuild a cylinder and I’ve seen that you can’t on the gt14’s but if there is a way to rebuild them or a replacement for them I’d like to know about it. It’s a bad leak! The picture below is just the tractor with the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,621 #2 Posted February 12, 2021 Within the last week or so, I posted a Leak "Repair for Hyd Cylinder 6618". I know the GT14 uses a much larger cylinder, but MAYBE the same method could be used to save it... Me thinks I just put it in the general WHEELHORSE category...but moderators may have found a better home for it...not sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 17,168 #6 Posted February 12, 2021 If it is around the hose fittings may be just an o ring (cheap) or maybe the swivel fitting itself (pricier) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sammy 89 #7 Posted February 12, 2021 Ok I’ll give it a try, it’s quite difficult to get those gt14 cylinders out so I have to es it for some of this snow to clear to tackle that job. It will be hopefully soon because this has kind of put a damper on our snow removal having our freshly rebuilt gt14 blow something on the cylinder! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,168 #8 Posted February 12, 2021 If it is the O ring it is going to be either dash # 905 or #906. if the threads in the cylinder are 1/2" NF it will be the 905 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
