My lift shaft seals are leaking on my Series IV and I am trying to figure out the best way to replace them. What has to be removed/ what is the correct order of removal to replace these o-rings? Thanks

Do you mean the seals in the lift arms?

If you're talking about the lift cylinders, it's a known problem. Rebuilt mine once and it started leaking again so decided to replace them with cylinders off a 175.

Remove both lift arms, slide shaft to left then replace right orang, do same to other side. Be good time to replace shaft bushings. MACK
