Leimbach pistons repair on 966G
Hi
I got hold of some repair kits for my Leimbach pistons on my Wedico 966G as they are leaking badly with oil. Anyone ever tried to fix these as I can't find any guides or similar online? Best Regards Carsten |

I did my Cylinders and valve overhauling after 10years on my Cat345 and I needed to send this to Thicon-Models in Germany because Leimbach would not deal with foreign country's.

Re: Leimbach pistons repair on 966G
I'm in the same situation. My 996g is leaking on one of the steering cylinder. It's a newer production machine with very little use too. I had a second older 966g machine with a very early production # and that did not leak at all... go figure.
So any info on how to proceed with rebuilding would be appreciated. |

Check with PMD Gardentrucking, they might have the repair kit from Leimbach with the different o-rings needed.

As for opening them, you should remove all fittings and put it in a vice, then gently twist the top/ top part off.

Re: Leimbach pistons repair on 966G
Thanks all. Joe also gave me a few tips and mentioned leimbach uses glue to seal the top cap. Has anyone found a source for the orings?

Re: Leimbach pistons repair on 966G
Hi
The numbers I know are: 30186-W or EHZW006 for steering cylinders 30188-w or ehzw007 for lifting arms and the showel tip Numbers are from my empty bags I saved in case I needed more. On bag the ehzwxxx seems to be leimbach number and the other from THicon |
