JCB 3CX stabiliser seal repairs DIY 

The new musac is less horrible than the old musac! I can't help thinking that a hydraulic extractor that runs from the digger's hydraulics ought to be doable! Cheers, Matthew

Great work 👏

That was a heck of a task ! When my Project 7 stabiliser rams started leaking I confess to outsourcing the repair and the chap had to press the pins out with a very large hydraulic press - that was 10 years ago - I've now got a Project 8/9 side console like yours a hope I don't have to do a repeat performance but do at least now have a 60 ton H press. As Matthew says in the previous comment (Hello Matthew fancy seeing you here!) could you use the Jakes hydraulics and a jury rigged extractor

What you needed was a massive hammer and a buddy holding a drift, if you both wear sandals, it works every time!!

Hello JB, thanks for the vid. how did the cylinder come out of the casing with the foot still attached

Yo dude good job what’s size were the bsp plugs
