RicksRag Dec 6th, 02, 8:07 PM Anybody ever tear down their convertible top hydraulic cylinders, and rebuild them ? Can it be done ?? Recrimping issues ??? I find it hard to justify 300 bucks in "new" cylinders for 30 bucks in seals Thanks ------------------ RicksRag Stephen City, Va TC # 560 ACES # 3702 VCEA # 3 RicksRag Dec 8th, 02, 11:44 AM Nobody has done thir cylinders ??? Are they designed to be non-servicible totally ??? I find it hard to believe, we can rebuild, virtually every part of a car, and not these cylinders. http://www.chevelles.com/forum/confused.gif ------------------ RicksRag Stephen City, Va TC # 560 ACES # 3702 VCEA # 3 FIG Dec 9th, 02, 9:04 AM Rick The problem we came upon was that the 71 cylinders had plastic fittings for the hoses. Otherwise it would have been easy for a hydraulic shop to repair. ------------------ J.J.
