Before you call

Repair and rebuilds: the short version

Fixing or rebuilding worn parts: hydraulic cylinders, shafts, bores and equipment.

When you need it

  • A leaking or bent hydraulic cylinder
  • A worn shaft, bushing or bore
  • A broken part you can't buy anymore
  • Farm, truck or plant equipment that's down

What to send the shop

  • Photos of the part, whole and up close
  • Cylinders: bore, rod, stroke and pin to pin length
  • Make, model, serial number and year
  • What failed, and how
  • The part itself, if you can bring it

Typical lead time

3 to 5 days for a cylinder rebuild at one shop, if seals are in stock.

Prices

What it costs

Each figure links to where it was posted. Your quote depends on the job.

Ask the shop

3 questions worth asking

  1. Q1

    Do you rebuild in house, or send it out?

  2. Q2

    Are seals in stock for my cylinder?

  3. Q3

    Will you repair the rod, or replace it?

Questions

Repair and rebuilds FAQ

How much is a hydraulic cylinder rebuild?

One Canadian shop lists $800 for a drop-off rebuild with new seals, cleaning and testing. Ask if rod or tube work is extra.

How long does a rebuild take?

3 to 5 days at one shop if seals are in stock. Radwell quotes about 5 to 10 days for hydraulic repairs.

What should I measure before I call?

Bore, rod, stroke, and the retracted and extended lengths. Add photos of the whole cylinder and any damage.

Good to know

  • Seals decide the wait. Ask before you pull the cylinder off the machine.
  • Downtime costs more than the repair. Say if it's urgent.
  • Prices here are posted by shops. Your quote will differ.
