Hi guys, I just joined here. I have a Clark C500 45 lift truck Serial # 355 2553 2560. I have never had a problem with the steering cylinder before but now when I turn all the way to where the steering stops and the cylinder is at it's shortest it will blow fluid out of the rod seal end with great pressure. No leaks at any other position. I pulled the cylinder and installed new rod seals but I still have the same issue. I do not understand why it blows out as the seals should keep it contained at all times as long as they are i good condition. The rod is not under size with no scoring. Any ideas as to what may be going on with my truck? Thanks for any help you may provide.

Better to do it right the 1st time then doing it wrong many times.
