Thanks Frank,
I connected the 3 cyls with the hoses then turned them upside down without the pistons fitted.
Filled no.1 with oil and put the piston in, pushed gently until oil appeared in the bottom of no.2, filled no.2 with oil and fitted the piston but pushed it all the way in then did no.3.
That way when 1 cyl is fully closed the other 2 are fully extended, et voila!
It works a treat, there a little on the tight side, may need to take a tad out the piston groove to loosen it but I'll try it loaded first.
I worked out that with a 15Kg load the pressure in the cyls is around 9 bar, should be ok, I hope!
Having trouble with the steering geometry at the moment, I've got too much travel at the axle end and it reaches full lock too soon so need to tweak the angles a bit, will update once done.
