Western Plows Part # 77475

Ram Assy 1-1/2 X 13-15/16 Da W

Western Part # 77475 is a Ram Assembly, specifically a 1-1/2 inch diameter by 13-15/16 inch stroke Double-Acting (DA) Hydraulic Cylinder, with a “W” suffix often indicating a specific series or version for Western plows. This is a complete hydraulic cylinder, a fundamental component used in various Western Snow Plows for critical functions such as lifting the plow or angling the blade.

As a “double-acting” cylinder, it means hydraulic pressure can extend the rod and also retract it, providing controlled movement in both directions. The “1-1/2 inch” refers to the bore diameter of the cylinder, indicating the size of the piston inside, which in turn determines the force the cylinder can generate. The “13-15/16 inch” refers to the stroke length, which is the maximum distance the piston rod can extend, directly correlating to the range of motion for the plow’s function.

This ram assembly is constructed from robust materials, including a heavy-gauge steel cylinder barrel, a hard-chromed piston rod to resist corrosion and wear, and high-quality internal seals (piston seal, rod seal, wiper seal) to ensure leak-free and efficient operation. It comes as a complete unit, ready for installation, simplifying replacement of a damaged or malfunctioning cylinder.

In Western Snow Plow applications, a ram assembly like Part # 77475 is used for:

• Plow Lift: Lifting the entire plow assembly up and down.
• Blade Angling: Pivoting the plow blade left or right.

Replacing a leaking, seized, or bent hydraulic ram with Western Part # 77475 restores the essential hydraulic functions of your plow, ensuring smooth, powerful, and reliable movement. This genuine Western assembly guarantees proper fit, optimal performance, and the durability required for demanding snow removal operations. Always refer to your specific Western Plow model’s documentation and hydraulic schematics to confirm compatibility with Part # 77475 and to follow proper installation procedures, including bleeding the hydraulic system.
