Ram identification

[Furniss]

After a bit of a cock up last year I have a brand new Kubota Ram - it came for a kx71-3 but didn't fit - too big in the rod and short in the stroke I think.
If I could identify what machine it fits then I could sell it no doubt.
Any ideas chaps ?

have you still got the one with the leaky port boss that needed re-welding?

Did you have your wellies out with the velcro

 

[Furniss]

I have 3 in a heap ...
New one that doesn't fit - one with à split around port and one with a worn piston (apparently)
Haven't had time to do anything with any of them.

I find the velcro sticks to the wool

That's the idea apparently

This one identifies as a lesbian cage fighter from Albania named Rico (and that’s all fine and dandy apparently!).
It’s a funny old world we find ourselves in nowadays...

U35-3a offset I think, the eyes are wide on the ends!

 

[Furniss]

With the ports like that mick ?

 

[Mick-the-fitter]

Hmm I did look at that! The first part of the part number relates it to a U35-3a, it’s quite a short stroke when you look at the ports like you say, it could be a boom ram which would have a lifting valve added, which would bring both hoses to a similar place.

Can you not phone a kubota dealer and ask them?

Boom ram would make sense... it was supposed to be a kx71-3a boom ram that was sent
Think the LM part of the number is actually EM looking again

Have to be careful which one
