Removed my boom cylinder (lots of fun) to repack and found the piston is welded to the shaft. Any options on split seals? Or just start search for used boom cylinder? its a 1987 machine. Or find a used piston?

You are right though if the gland seals are still ok, then replacing the piston seal and putting it back together is probably the best approach.
(also, you can continue searching for a replacement)

Is the boom cylinder Interchangeable with 1550B or 1700B? or any other JCB model?
