horseyheaven 112 #1 Posted November 8, 2022 Hi everyone, I am rebuilding a hydraulic lift cylinder for my 520h. I need the snap ring that holds the piston in the bore. Mine snapped into many pieces while taking it apart. The cylinder measured 1.51” but I could not get a good measure down in the groove. I am guessing 1 9/16” or 1 5/8”. I can’t find a part number or size on any of the parts sites. I thought some of you may have ran into this before. Thanks everyone and have a good evening.

Be sure to install the snap ring with the square cut side out, the other side is slightly rounded and won't hold as well. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Click on the little envelope looking thing on the top right of the home page and type in his name and the "O" ring set as subject. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
