Questions

Repair and rebuilds FAQ

What should I measure on a hydraulic cylinder?

Send the bore, rod, stroke and pin to pin length. Include the machine make, model, serial number and photos of the failure.

Can the work be done on site?

Ask whether the shop can inspect or repair it where it sits. Send the address, access details and photos before arranging a visit.

Can I get a same day repair in Richmond?

Wheel Medic, a Richmond wheel shop, advertises same day service and quotes each job. For cylinders and equipment, ask about the queue when you send photos.

What should the repair quote include?

Ask about inspection, seals, machining, rod repair or replacement, testing and transport. Confirm whether the final price follows a teardown.

Good to know

  • Ask about seal availability before removing the cylinder.
  • No Richmond shop we checked posts prices for this. Send a request to compare quotes.
