Good point about the transportation time- most all cylinder repairs in the field we do now get removed and come to the shop. That way it can be pressure washed and we have a bead blaster to clean the gland nut grooves. If you had two tilt cylinders to build, along with a steer cylinder, it is sometimes better to make it a shop job since you are looking at at least two travel times to the no site. Customer probably wouldn't pay and more just to have it hauled. HOWEVER, I do have the ones that seem to never want to let their machine leave their yard.
