Hi all
I have a aggravating problem I m dealing with and hoping you guys can help me out or give some guidance ? I have a 345 bl the stick cylinder rod was junk due to someone welding the eye up when the bearing was blown out and didnt machine it and it pounded itself to death !! So it gets a new rod and a seal kit mechanic puts it back together puts it on the machine and it goes in service. Get a call theres a loud bang when you extend and retract the stick cylinder, so first thought the nut backed off rod end wtf!!! Go out and feel the cylinder and it seems like it is take it off put it on the bench guess what its not loose so put the cylinder back on check my pressures they are all in spec.So the bang is still there so i disconnect rod end and hang cylinder by my crane and cycle it still bangs when cycling it ?????????????? :Banghead
