As others mentioned, get the gland loose (completely) before removing the cylinder from the loader. For my unit I had to buy a 4 mm gland nut wrench (aka face spanner). Pin holes on the gland are probably dependent on serial number/age, so measure before buying. Also, my pistons have an o-ring groove with a larger o-ring than came in the kit. On one I just reused the old o-ring, on the other I bought a 1.5 mm x25 mm ID viton o-ring that seemed to be the correct size and fit well. Still waiting on feedback from Kubota on what the disconnect is with the kit. To bend the oil seal into a kidney shape, I drop three finishing nails into a scrap of wood, snipped the head off and put some wire shrink wrap over them. I stepped the height of the nails down by the width of the seal. It worked and meant I didn't have to buy an install tool. Final tip, the nut on the end of the shaft on mine was 28 mm, and I used an impact wrench to remove.
