until i get into the for sale/wanted forum to see if someone has a spare for sale i figured it would be a good idea to find out what others have experienced in what took place during their experience rebuilding their hydraulic attachment pin couplers hydraulic cylinder. i,am really looking for guys that have only delt with this particular part only ( at209163) reason simply , its a special custom cylinder and the guys that have them will know that. its kind of simple guys . rods are pitted from the salt !!! always being locked they only leak a little when there unlocked for the 2 or 3 minutes . this item comes i believe on the 444 544 644 deere its the 416 series coupler , mines the tc54h. its not a big deal but when i change from bucket to push box while plowing sometimes i can leave a little oil sheen . i rather find a new old stock or maybe a good used southern cylinder with zero rust ! i gotta think why rebuild the damm thing at $400 per rod from deere just to start with.
$400 isn't terrible, the only downtime is disassembly and re assembly
