Hi Robert, can you check your PM?

Thanks, Hiball for your help. If I need a to replace the pump piston, can you help me find a used one? The new one is quite expensive from Lazzar or Blackhawk website.

Yes, I did install the spring prior to putting back the cylinder to the frame but the spring is about an inch shorter to the stud so I have to pull it with the brake spring puller so I could hook it to the stud, and boy, those springs are strong!!!

Hiball, one more thing, can you tell me the easiest to reinstall the 2 big springs that are hooked to the hole in the cylinder and connect to the stud on the arm? I had to muscle it with a brake spring device to get installed, whew!!

Yes, I did remove it. Here is what I will do. I will remove the cylinder from the body again. I will open all the valves except the valve on the side for weight limitatiom protection. I will remove all oil, flush all holes with new oil and dust off air cannister, and reinstall them. Is that ok...

Hiball, I did not touch the ram assembly cuz I could not open it although i tried a lot of pounding and heat to unscrew it. I hope I did not damage anything inside like the seal or gasket? 1) flushing valve vein?, valve plug? clarify please. How do I do these? Steve, why would the plunger not...

Hiball. i did the bleeding already. I did the air purging , too. I wasted so much oil refilling. Could the damaged plunger assembly has something to do with it? Remember the plunger that I damaged while drilling the bottom plug ( refer to #472 thread)?

here are the rest of the pictures.

As I have promised, here are the pictures of my fully restored, painted Hein Werner WS. It took me awhile but i finally did it!! Better late than never, right? But I hit a glitch again and I need your expert advice on this especially Hiball, who without his help I would never have done this...

At last!! Here is my cylinder ready to be painted.

I will get it for you tomorrow. I am still away on holiday.

Hiball, help!!! I messed up the plunger when drilling the bottom hole. I must have drilled too deep and It damaged the hex screw, the washer, and bit a part of the bolt. I ordered the same size of hex plug, 14-28, and I plan of using a JB cold weld on the damage bolt before screwing back to...

I was able to remove the plunger from the bottom and also the guard using a drag link socket. I have to drill the bottom plug. Now, i know the oem hex plug for the bottom hole is 3/4"-20. i would like to tap the hole the same size so i can use the oem plug. What size of tap and drill bit do I...

This is what I am looking for.

Hi, Hiball. Again, your wisdom on the subject is greatly appreciated. You were right. I didn't have the leverage. My vise is installed on a tool cart with wheels. Like i said before, I don't have the pleasure of a garage so my space is quite limited. The last time I tried to have a solid hold...
