1967 Case 580CK Extend-a-hoe cylinder rebuild

The extendahoe cylinder on my model 33 is leaking badly but can't find a rebuild kit for it. It has a couple of screws in it that I am not sure are supposed to be there. Would sure appreciate any ideas! Will try to post a picture. All the ones I can find on the web do not have the fork in the ram. THANKS!

    Welcome to HEF Not2Clever ! Yes the screw is supposed to be there. It is a safety lock to keep the gland from getting loose. Call Dale Weiss he is cheaper than anybody. The Bull Dog brand seal kits he sells are about $25.00. http://e-backhoeparts.com/
