It is leaking around the seal on the shaft. I understand that it needs a quad ring instead of an O-ring. My question, it is the large end of the unit that is leaking, When I take the end off, are parts going to fall everywhere, or will it stay together so I can replace the quad ring? I'm under the impression that one end will come off easily and the other end holds everything together. Which end is this?? Chris [Reply]   [No Email]

Sizing is the same dash numbers as O-rings but a quad ring has more surface wear area. Char-Lynn may still have kits available, if you can find a part number/model number on the unit, usually they"re stamped in somewhere [Reply]  [No Email]

I had some problems and looked everywhere for info to help me out but came up lacking. I finally figured those things out and can be in and out of one in 5 minutes time. Great powerful torque generators. The one I just did on my M turns with one finger with the loader packed. I love those things! [Reply]  [No Email]

Take the 4 bolts out, hold the shaft put, and pull off the collar. You can just hold the shaft there (it goes a ways into the base and won't fall out) and replace that seal that is there. There actually two - a large and small. You can do both of hose and have it done in15 minutes. [Reply]  [No Email]
