I had already taken the 2 bucket cylinders off and was going to put seal kits in them after unscrewing the cap on one of them and setting it on the table as I started replacing the seals on the head I picked up the cap to replace the seals and it fell in 2 piecesIt will help if you describe which cylinder on your LA302 FEL.
What were you doing when it broke.
There are things you should never do with a load like pushing with the bucket tilted.

If you are using long pallet forks the risks are even greater.

Its not uncommon. Sometimes happens during the removsl process. In the past I have made replacements for people that had cylinders for people with ones thatbwere NLA. Did you order the replacement cylinders we discussed in your other thread?I had already taken the 2 bucket cylinders off and was going to put seal kits in them after unscrewing the cap on one of them and setting it on the table as I started replacing the seals on the head I picked up the cap to replace the seals and it fell in 2 pieces
Yes have a fed-ex tracking #Its not uncommon. Sometimes happens during the removsl process. Did you order the replacement cylinders we discussed in your other thread?

I thought those were for the boom.Yes have a fed-ex tracking #
They are for the LA302 BUCKETI thought those were for the boom.

I loosened both white still attached to the loaderHow hard was it to take apart?
Yes with a pipe wrench I do not have the spanner wrench or a large vice to remove the capWith a pipe wrench?
Got the magister cylinders today they are not quite what I expected the pin holes are larger along with the shaft end being narrow and the fittings is another problemYes with a pipe wrench I do not have the spanner wrench or a large vice to remove the cap
You said 1" pins - is that not what you got? Both ends are 1.5" wide which is narrower than OEM but should not be a problem. What's the problem with the ports? They should be SAE-06Got the magister cylinders today they are not quite what I expected the pin holes are larger along with the shaft end being narrow and the fittings is another problem

Their website has a very good engineering drawing detailing all of that.

You can see they are quite abit different will need sleeves and spacers to make these work still looking for fittings from sae to kubota
My mistake they are closer to 3/4" pin holesI see little of consequence.
The ports on your old cylinders are probably plain old NPT. If so four of these will get the new cylinders hooked up to your hoses:

Check out the deal on 6901-06-06 | #6 SAE/ORB Male x 3/8" NPSM Female Swivel 90° at DiscountHydraulicHose.comwww.discounthydraulichose.com
I dont see any need for spacers but if you want them get a piece of 1" PVC pipe and saw eight 3/8" slices off it.
Your originsl post said your loader had 1" pins so why do you need bushings?

I thought that was rather large and it pushed things up to a 2" cylinder. I should have double checked at the time. This 1 5" cylinder would have been a better match:My mistake they are closer to 3/4" pin holes
Changed out the hydraulic cylinders to the 1.5" cylinders and got the fittings so all is goodI thought that was rather large and it pushed things up to a 2" cylinder. I should have double checked at the time. This 1 5" cylinder would have been a better match:
