Something else your might consider is Parker O-lube. You can get it thru
Spruce. Use it to lubricate the rod. The nose gear cyl can bypass fluid as
the rod rubs back and forth thru the rubber bushing. It's not an uncommon
problem, and this helps alleviate it some, should you find it happening in
your installation.

Hi All
I am putting the fittings on the gear cylinders and seem to remember some
discussion ( that I cant find in my saved pile ) about the right way to seal
the fittings on the hydraulic cylinders....... my normal practice would be
to use Teflon tape. Is this the best??
Thanks
