I have a used HC5345 and I want to replace the seals using HS5157 Front Mount Cylinder Kit. The unit is not on the boat (yet). I can't seem to get the end cap seal glands to loosen using a spanner wrench. Has anyone got some experienced tips that will help me? I'm using a proper wrench.
HELP ... want to go fishing but need to get this cylinder repaired and on the boat.
