SG Power Steering Cylinder
This past weekend in an attempt to tighten up the steering, I was replacing the ball joints at the ends of the power steering cylinder since they was really clicking as I drove it around. The first one I started to work on what the end of the cylinder that connects to the front axle. I broke the jam nut free while it was still attached, then disconnected it from the LH knuckle. When disconnected, I accidentally lost my balance on some ice and leaned/fell toward the tractor. The shaft of the power steering cylinder easily retracted. I would have thought there would be some resistance. I disconnected the hydraulic lines and capped the fittings on the cylinder off. I was able to extend and retract the cylinder without much effort even with the fittings capped. How much leakage is allowable with this cylinder and what are my options with it since it is welded and doesn't appear to be made to be rebuilt as it is.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
