Bobcat Hydraulic Cylinder Repair in Fontana

A lift arm that drifts or a tilt cylinder that cannot hold a load sidelines a Bobcat as completely as a blown engine. The cylinder bench at Top Notch Equipment Repair rebuilds Bobcat lift, tilt, boom and steering cylinders in Fontana — resealing, rod work, barrel honing and pressure testing, all in one shop.

Bobcat cylinders, rebuilt at our Fontana bench

Skid steer and track loader cylinders work hard: side-loaded, pins contaminated, rods out in the dust all day. Each cylinder is stripped and measured, then rebuilt to what the numbers call for — seals and wear rings renewed, bent or scored rods re-chromed or manufactured new, barrels honed to finish — and pressure-tested before it is released.

Reseal, or rebuild? The bench decides.

Some Bobcat cylinders genuinely need only a reseal — and that is all we will sell you. Others arrive with scored rods or worn barrels that will eat a new seal kit in a month; those get rod and barrel work so the repair lasts. Either way the decision comes from measurements taken on your cylinder, and the quote comes before the work. Regular hours Monday–Friday 6 AM–5 PM; rush service 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

  • Lift, tilt and boom cylinder rebuilding
  • Rod straightening assessment, re-chroming and manufacture
  • Barrel honing and tube replacement
  • Seal kits fitted and pressure-tested
  • Pin and bushing renewal at the mounts

Frequently asked questions

My Bobcat lift cylinder drifts down under load. Is that a reseal?

Drift usually means internal bypass — worn piston seals or a scored barrel. We measure the barrel and piston at teardown and quote the repair the cylinder actually needs.

Can you fix a bent Bobcat cylinder rod?

A bent rod is replaced, not straightened, on our bench — we manufacture a new rod to the original dimensions and rebuild the cylinder around it.
