The pipe threads appeared to be machined into the cylinder body; but now that you mention it, they must be machined into the end cap. So, the AN fitting must be removed, then the end cap (with the machined pipe threads) will slide out with the cylinder shaft? I won't be able to check and try that till this evening, but does that sound correct? Bill Rumburg [Bill... yep, that sounds like it. Remove the AN fittings and then take it apart. Should work fine. ]
