LA 352 on B2400 - New cylinder sizes

[mikebpbx]

I've got an LA 352 on a B2400 and the hydraulic cylinders are rusted and need replaced (can't just do seals, unfortunately)

The bore and stroke seem to be odd sizes. Does anyone know what aftermarket cylinders I can put on this thing, and if I need these *exact* sizes? Is it better to go shorter/longer if I can't get exact matches?

Very limited choice in 1.75 bore cylinders
You need to measure retracted lengtb and then stay within an inch or so of both retracted end extended lengths.

Maybe a dumb question, but could I go down to 1.5 instead, as long as I keep the 1" pin size, or would it be too underpowered?

You would reduce lift force by 26%.. Pretty big hit. I would be inclined to go up instead. Post the retracted and extended length (center to center of pins) and I will check a few sources.
