you did a good job searching out the problem but have to say it was painful to watch you wrestle with that snap ring, less pounding is more too if you know what I mean. Obviously you are in a learning curve but as such all of us are reminded to do no damage of our own, just complicates the matter.
at the end where you have the plunger and your considering a slide hammer, what if you re-threaded the rod into it and pulled it out with ur truck like u talked about earlier?
Think I'm dealing with the same issue on a Champion log splitter. Was useful to see this troubleshooting process. Thanks for sharing!
Use compressed air on the rod end piston bolt hole. Be careful on how much pressure you apply as it could come apart with force.
Great idea! I don't like the idea of banging on it with a slide hammer.

A less honest youtuber would cut that out of the video, but I want people to know that it doesn't always go well in the shop. Thanks for comment!
Not very often it’s the spool valve
Most of the time it’s the piston seals if it’s a two way

What about using a flywheel puller
Bearing puller
Without watching the video I bet I can guess. The nut came off the rod and the piston is detached.
Yep. It’s so common for people not to tighten them enough and probably use no red lock tight
really isnt that hard to believe.
I've seen 2 tack welds on that bolt to keep it from coming out.
Never seen anybody pound on the cylinder like that
Insert joke here. Thanks for watching!
MR. MIKE. HOW THE HECK YOU DOING?
Hey! I’m good! How are you?
@MikesGarageShop doing good left request and bought a gas station and sporting goods store. Needed to get away from Mike and Kenny, lol!!
🤣
This is painful to watch. Some people shouldn't be allowed to own tools.
Great thing about UA-cam. Great place to learn!
You're right. He should have used a hammer and two finishing nails.
