Boom hoist cylinder’s ,re-seal or holding valve?

nickm110 ยท 2013-04-30 06:13

Hello, We have a fleet of 18 Grove RT cranes here in Saudi Arabia,RT765E-2 up to RT9130E,a couple of the cranes have had problems with the boom "creeping" in,normally it's a seal change or holding valve replacement,depending on what the symptoms are.What is the opinion on re-buliding a holding valve (piston,seals etc),or buy new? personally i always order new,in asking around other companies,they are re-building. I would be interested to hear opinions. Thanks.
