Hello all,
I have a JCB 805BT, a dumper ( no idea what it is yet and a Yanmar YB301-2.
I am hoping someone can help as I need a manual for both and seals for the boom ( the big cylinder on the top ) I think I have found a supplier for the JCB seals but I am struggling for the Yanmar. Any help would be appreciated, as I get the old girls moving I will post pics and will obviously be asking for lots of advice

Thanks in advance

Andy

Hi Andy and welcome I would suspect that seals can be obtained from a bearing/drives supplier unless they are a special size; other CMN members may be able to offer you some more specific advice.

They are very fast in supply and their prices are good. https://originalparts4you.com/yanmar

The Yanmar YB201 we had been borrowing needed two of the rams rebuilding last summer and they were quite a strange arrangement that no one appeared to have parts for, the chaps I took them to for a rebuild had to have custom seals made (which wasn't hugely more expensive than if they had been stock size). Each ram cost about £150+VAT to get rebuilt including a hone of the cylinders and all the parts including the custom made seals. If you're anywhere near Kent I can give you the contact details of the people we used.
