I have an 82t mower. It has a double acting Prince cylinder with a vent in the bottom port. What was the correct Allis Chalmers cylinder used with this mower? ------------- 1953 WD45 WF/Model 90 Loader, Oxnard Rear Blade, 80R Mower, Model 209 Disc, WD Rear Mounted Scoop, Model 184 & 160 Rotary Mowers, 1952 CA NF/L306CA mower, 1953 CA WF/Model 8 Loader. |

| The correct cylinder will be determined by the tractor pulling it. Older systems, use 3500 psi one way cyl, newer systems can use a lower pressure 1500 psi cylinder... State the tractor you plan to use, and we can tell you the correct one to use... |

The tractor I am using it with is a WD45. The owners manual for the mower shows a cylinder with the hose fitting on the ram end of the cylinder, not the bottom like an Allis single acting cylinder. ------------- 1953 WD45 WF/Model 90 Loader, Oxnard Rear Blade, 80R Mower, Model 209 Disc, WD Rear Mounted Scoop, Model 184 & 160 Rotary Mowers, 1952 CA NF/L306CA mower, 1953 CA WF/Model 8 Loader. |

This is the cylinder used on the mower. I think it is higher pressure rated than the standard 2 way but it functions as a 2 way. Probably similar to the 3000 PSI of the welded construction version. It is not at all like the original AC high pressure design. Many regular 2 ways were used on AC High pressure systems but you could blow them out if the tractor pump was up to full pressure capability. AC also used this 2 way before they went to low PSI systems. You should be able to use this cylinder on most any tractor......Dale Orangereborn 964 192nd Ave New Richmond, WI 54017 715-247-3079 715-781-2055 mailto:Orangereborn@hotmail.com" rel="nofollow - - Orangereborn@hotmail.com  |

| if your using it on a WD45 the correct cylinder would be another WD45 cylinder. the implements usually had a cylinder matching the tractor cylinder. We traded a # 3 three mower the dealer took off the WD cylinder and put a C cylinder on in its place. since we put the mower on a C the larger WD cylinder took to much oil. |
