Description
Overview:
This Bush (Position 3 Ram) is a non-genuine replacement for the hydraulic ram mounting point on JCB 18Z-1 mini excavators, including the 18Z-1 and 18Z1. It is a precision-machined metal sleeve designed to sit between the ram eye and the pin, helping to maintain correct alignment and reduce play. By providing a smooth bearing surface, the bush limits wear on both the pin and the cylinder eye, supporting consistent hydraulic performance under site conditions. Built for durability, it withstands shock loads and abrasive environments typically found in excavation and landscaping work. A practical spare for routine maintenance or repairs, it helps keep downtime low and ensures the machine operates smoothly during digging, grading, and lifting tasks. This is a Non Genuine Part.
