Matbro Hydraulic seal replacement

[Transporer]

Hi the steering ram seals are shot on my matbro telehandler. Iv managed to get the rams apart but I’m not sure on how to get replacements. It’s on hurth axels i don’t want to put it back together and 6 months later they start leaking again.

Why ?everytime i have to fix a ram ,i take it off pop to the local hydraulic place (sutton of ross on wye ,top people) leave it there pop back next day and hey presto its done.i havnt the correct tools they have racks of seals to fit all types. And they get it back together properly as the threads on the ram can be buggers to thread

Why because 1 I’m on a budget and 2 being able to do it myself is rewarding.

Never seen that axle set up imo must be some old random model.

OP should take seals to local ram shop and they will match them.

Thanks i Will try that. I didn’t no if it was just a case of measuring the seals or the ram and ordering them.
