Naiad Service in Los Angeles?

[oceanjake]

Does anyone have a recommendation for someone that can replace a ram seal on a Naiad 252 system in the Long Beach, CA area?

Naiad only has someone in San Diego, 2 hours away. Thanks for any input.

If you pull the ram you can take it to any hydraulic shop and get it resealed for very little money. the seals are going to be less than $10 and very easy to swap yourself. I've resealed quite a few rams myself and its a piece of cake. Cap the lines when disconnecting and fill the ram prior to installing and probably will not even need to bleed.

Call me if you want me to walk you thru it. I have the service manual as well if you need it.

Thanks Corey. For a change I actually don’t want to mess with this. Fun fact: when I was a teenager I actually changed a lot of these deals on a hydraulic suspension on my mini truck. Little hooligan. I know I could pull the ram and do this job, but I won’t have the correct o-rings and there will be downtime. I’d rather have someone out with parts on hand. Looking for a local guy.

Getting lazy in your old age! I know the feeling. I can't help with a local naiad tech but would guess a forklift repair guy could do all the leg work for alot less. I have a spare ram on my boat that you swap out and have yours resealed and returned to me if you want. Ill be headed your way in a week or so and could drop it off.
