Looks to be different model applications for the US vs Aus versions as the US 24C single valve starts out at #24C-365 even though the parts book states 24C1-up. That's for a D2 4U1-6372.
Can you find a part number on the hydraulic cylinder? Not sure I have the right one.
Thanks Old Magnet, you are a legend.
The attachment diagrams looks like the right hydraulic controller drawings. Now I can try and get some seals for the drive shaft housing. I suspect that the housing was only manufactured here in Australia but fitted out with the original cat pump.
The clylinders at the oil line clevis end have part No 1H4331 stamped on the casting and at the other end of the cylinder the dust seal casting has No 1H4433 cast into it. I hope that will help you with your search.
Once again, thanks very much for your help.
Your 1H4331 # is probably pretty close to the part number. The info I have is for either a much earlier or later tool bar cylinder. Maybe someone else can come up with the correct unit parts diagram.
I am watching this thread with interest, having just acquired a '53 D2 with the same issues as you have, plus a lot more I suspect!!
Keep us informed of your progress.
Here are a few photos of the disassembled hydraulic ram and a couple of the internals of the #41 Hydraulic controler.[attachment=15586]PC030218.jpg[/attachment][attachment=15587]PC030219.jpg[/attachment][attachment=15585]PC030217.jpg[/attachment][attachment=15584]PC030216.jpg[/attachment][attachment=15583]PC030215.jpg[/attachment][attachment=15588]PC030220.jpg[/attachment]
Great photos, thanks
Found this in my files, looks to be the correct one, kinda fuzzy though.
Thanks Old Magnet.
The drawing looks to be near enough to the correct one. At least I will be able to check part No's with Cat to make sure they will fit with what I have.
Tanks very much for your help. I will keep you posted with the outcome although the way things happen around here it could be some time down the track before I get it all together and tested out.
Cheers

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
