My boom cylinder on the Insley has failed. I've repacked it without luck, I think it might be beyond repair. It's a 5 1/2" bore 48" stroke. I was thinking of trying a salvage yard, but it's been a while since I've had to find parts and haven't had any luck yet. Anybody have any info on new or used cylinders? Thanks!

I have a 875 but unable to find the seal kit information, do you still have the info from whey you repacked yours
I don't think the manual helped. I ended up measuring the seals and ordering from HydraPak out of Utah. I tried twice to repack it. I don't know if the cylinder or piston were too wore or if it was something else, but it didn't work. I found a cylinder from a surplus company that worked. I'm not sure I saved the measurements.
Sometimes the cylinder needs to be honed for the same reasons an engine cylinder needs to be honed. If it wasn't done previously then have a look at getting that done.
