CAT 963 Full Hydraulic Build

[rockNmayhem]

It's time for an daily update with some progress. I got my new seals in today and decided I would spend some time assembling one of the cylinders and getting it built. I got everything buttoned up on it and stuck it in the loader just to see what I had and here are some pics of the results. Now only one more identical to this one and then on to the bucket ram then hopefully they all hold good pressure and operate smoothly and handle the pressure better than the original ones that came with this unit.

Anyways here are a few teaser pics from tonights progress.

Fully collapsed:



Fully extended:



And here are a few close ups of the attachment points.





I hope I can get the other one built sometime this weekend and have the model back together next week.

Lemme know what you guys think.

Looks great Tyler! Maybe you should start building cylinder kits?

Brian if these cylinders hold up and work out I may just be able to replicate some of them for others if there was enought intrest.
