rubber just like all the other flaps, 94 A0. all 5 holes had a large washer on the opposite side than shown and on the side in pic the 3 hole edge was against a flat 1" wide object.
Do you think your cab is all the way open? It is probably not and therefore is not locked and is not safe.
There is a oblong part that must rotate inside the top part on the cylinder. It is rusted to the bolt and cannot turn.
Loosen bolt, apply penetrating oil, rotate bolt. Apply grease inside...
There is something about the part on top of the cab cylinder that either does not work or is not understood. The users manual does not cover how it works, but it would not be shaped the way it is if it had not been intended to do something to allow the cab to open further.
Looking at the design, it seems apparent that it was intended for the cab weight to go further forward so the cab brace would fold on itself and lock. I cannot find any reason the cab stops where it does.
System is extremely clean and no sign of water or trash. Pump will operate suspension usually, cab up sometimes but not cab down. Spare tire for 2" then never again. Cab will not open past where the cylinder pushes it. The pin will not slide up in the loop at end of cylinder. So brace never goes...
I set bottom to cab lift and top to raise. Pump hand pump. Pumps up high pressure and will not pump more. Then turn top knob to lower, you can hear the ping as the pressure is released. Play with all combinations of settings and occasionally it will work fine for 5 or 6 pumps until jams again...
So cab needs to be pumped all the way down is normal? I thought I read it would close with a flow control but that may have been another series of trucks. New fluid, clean, no air, no water.
I tried the suspension circuit and it worked fine as did the spare. Then I tried the cab, no go so I...
How many restrictor orifice are there and where are they? Should the cab close on its weight or does it have to be pumped all the way down?
Is there a locking valve in the cylinder?
