Ranger cylinder attach studs

Post by bty697859 »

'Hi
Had a little problem with the front 2 studs shearing on my ranger(front cylinder) and wondered if any one had any spare?
I can only assume that the wrong torque settings were used when it had its last top end overhaul.
Also im looking for a gasket set and cylinder base seals?

'Gasket sets are available from Fresno Air Parts. They include cylinder base
seals, but they aren't the best. O-200 cylinder seals work fine.

I'll check on the studs, I may have some.

Gasket sets are available from Fresno Air Parts. They include cylinder base
seals, but they aren't the best. O-200 cylinder seals work fine.

I'll check on the studs, I may have some.
