Sideshifter Cylinder Removal
Relieve hydraulic pressure before removing hoses or
hydraulic components. Make sure the truck is turned
off and move the auxiliary control handle several times
in both directions.
1. Disconnect hoses beneath the cylinder.
2. Remove the lower mounting hooks, as shown in
Figure 15965.
3. Attach an overhead hoist to the top of the side-
shifter carriage and remove the carriage from the
truck (the cylinder assembly/anchor bracket will re-
main on the truck carriage).
4. Carefully remove the cylinder assembly/anchor
bracket from the truck carriage.
5. Inspect the sideshifter bearings for wear and re-
place if necessary.
For reassembly, the above steps should be reversed,
with the following exceptions:
1. Thoroughly clean the upper hook and lower bear-
ing pocket to remove built-up dirt and grease.
2. Prior to reassembly, carefully inspect and clean all
parts.
3. Inspect the anchor bracket cutouts and locate the
upper bearings.
4. Install the lower mounting hooks and adjust as
needed.
5. Ensure proper lubrication of sideshifter bearings.
