Cypress Sam, SASS #10915 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 The washer that is braded onto the plunger on the lifter on my Marlin Cowboy sheared off. Does anyone know of a source for a new plunger assembly? There is not enough left to fit an e-ring onto the old plunger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Slick McClade sells the package: New plunger stud, spring and e-clip. Give him a shout. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackrabbit Joe #414 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Yo-Ho Sam: Try Slick McClade at (318)278-9071. Pretty sure he can fix you up. If not I do have some carriers that are fixed for the Marlin Jamb if need one. Jackrabbit Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypress Sam, SASS #10915 Posted September 26, 2019 Author Share Posted September 26, 2019 Thanks for the help. I can always depend on my friends on the wire for help. I ordered a replacement kit from Slick. The factory replacement lifter won’t work because my gun has been short stroked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Callaway Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I was educated on buying 2 years back. I was playing being a farmer and had all used equipment. I would cut hay with a Ford 501 sickle mower. I kept breaking the hickory pitman arm. And always when I was using it! About the 4th run to the parts store the sales clerk gave me some valuable advice. Buy two and hang one in the barn. I did and never broke another. The old mower is long gone. I'll have to see if the extra pitman arm is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOW, they're both gone. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypress Sam, SASS #10915 Posted September 27, 2019 Author Share Posted September 27, 2019 I used to have to cut hay with a one-mule-power sickle bar mower back when I was a kid. I always hoped that the damn thing would disintegrate. Never did though. Finally my Dad got a Farmall Cub tractor with a sickle bar - much better. I didn’t need two of them though.

Was you living "off grid"?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sam, SASS #10915 Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 I wasn’t living off the grid. Just back before there WAS a “grid”. Florida back during and right after WWII wasn’t much like it is now, ‘specially out on the ranch where I was raised. As a matter of fact, even now civilization pretty much ends about 10 miles south of here (Kissimmee) and doesn’t pick up again for a hundred miles. If one considers Okeechobee City to be civilization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
