Running some numbers at 1,000 psi supply with different rods for push / pull.
5/8 rod = 1767 / 1460 psi = 307 diff
3/4 rod = 1767 / 1325 psi = 442 diff
1.00 rod = 1767 / 982 psi = 785 diff
Should I be concerned about psi difference in pull between the different rods or is it pretty much nominal?
I am running an unknown brand 1.5x8 with 5/8 rod.

I have a surplus center ram on the racer. Forget which one. I'm not in love with it for high speed back and forth turning. No issues with it turning in the rocks. I do think you get what you pay for.

I am hesitant about cheaping out especially since i use it on the street.

That is my thought as well.

The more I educate myself on the subject of hydraulic cylinders, the more I feel I may have an alignment issue damaging my rod seal.
When I get back to CHS, I am going to closely inspect the cylinder and my mounting job.
