Steer Cylinder Seal Kit 7017215 – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Steer Cylinder Seal Kit with JLG Part Number 7017215 is a specialized seal set designed for the Hydraulic Steer Cylinder utilized in the axle assembly of various JLG Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs). This kit is essential for performing maintenance and repair on leaking or drifting steer cylinders without incurring the cost of a complete cylinder replacement.
The steer cylinder is crucial for the safe and responsive steering and positioning of the lift, especially on rough-terrain and 4-wheel steer models. Wear and tear, contamination, or age cause the seals inside the cylinder to fail, resulting in external leaks (fluid visible on the cylinder rod) or internal bypass (fluid passing the piston seal, leading to slow or non-responsive steering).
Using the 7017215 seal kit restores the cylinder’s ability to hold pressure, eliminates fluid leaks, and ensures the steering system operates with its original precision and safety integrity.
