finally they're out.

'tis a thing a beauty I tell ya. ( spoken with thick Irish brogue, even though I'm only a little Irish.)
finally got all 11 hydraulic actuators out. Soon to be off to Top Hydraulics out in Oregon to get the right stuff.
Some serious effort went into getting them out, Putting them back in place is going to be quite the adventure.
Although the guidance videos from top hydraulics are really good.

In hindsight - and, from experience - you should have ordered the exchange parts.

Much easier to remove and replace when you have the parts in hand.

Good luck with your project. Very satisfying when it's done!
