I am currently planning to replace the seals on the dipper Ram on the above JCB 3CX-4 Sitemaster . From the workshop manuals (which I was kindly able to download from the forum, thank you) I have identified the spade parts, (I think) however I am not able to locate A RAM Protection sleeve. I think the Ram is 100mm x 60MM and the sleeve i require is 892/01021.
Would anyone happen to know where I can get one of these or indeed is it possible to do the replacement with out it or lastly potentially fashion something to do th same job. As i dont wish to remove the piston until i am reasonable certain of what i ma doing and advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks, Conor
