Hi all, I'm replacing the D-rings on my EX-60; one started leaking hyd fluid profusely, so doing both sides as suggested. Thanks to Pape machinery in Mt Vernon Wa for sourcing the parts.

Two questions -

1) Any tips for installing the D-rings on the piston? They clearly fit tight and I don't want to risk damaging them when installing.

2) The large 6" o-ring that that seals the motor to the frame mount - got new ones, the old ones were clearly glued in the groove to help with installation. What kind of adhesive is suggested here? Rubber cement? What was in there was still slightly flexible after all these years.

Thanks,
