85804740 Loader Bucket Cylinder Seal Kit for Ford / New Holland Backhoe Loaders
Product Overview
The 85804740 seal kit is an aftermarket hydraulic cylinder seal kit made for the loader bucket cylinders of Ford and New Holland backhoe loaders. It is supplied factory-direct by DJF Seals for parts suppliers, repair workshops and fleet maintenance teams that rebuild the loader end of 3-series, 4-series, 5-series and 6-series Ford backhoes plus the New Holland LB75. The kit restores the cylinder’s sealing set so the bucket keeps its holding force, stops external oil leaks, and stays free of dirt ingress during loading and levelling work.
Independent aftermarket distributors in the United States (RAParts on Amazon, tractorpartsasap, ruijueparts, and multiple eBay listings) list the same part number for the same application, and one listing connects the kit to the OEM cylinder number 85800500 used on the loader bucket cylinders of this machine family.
Verified Application
Cross-verified application: loader bucket cylinder (left-hand and right-hand) of Ford / New Holland backhoe loaders. The kit relates to OEM cylinder number 85800500.
| Machine | Models listed by independent suppliers |
|---|---|
| Ford backhoe loaders | 345C, 345D, 445C, 445D, 455C, 455D, 545C, 545D, 555C, 555D, 555E, 655C, 655D, 655E, 675E |

The model list above is the union of what appears on the DJF listing and on independent US aftermarket listings (Amazon RAParts, eBay, tractorpartsasap, ruijueparts). ruijueparts additionally lists 575E, which the DJF page does not; if your machine is a 575E, confirm the cylinder number before ordering.
Replacement Scope
This kit is intended to replace the complete sealing set of one loader bucket cylinder on the machines listed above. It covers the rod-end and piston-end sealing elements used in a standard rebuild — rod seal (U-seal with buffer), piston seal, wiper, guide/wear rings and O-rings. An eBay listing for this kit describes the rod end as a U-seal plus buffer configuration, which is the typical arrangement for backhoe loader bucket cylinders of this size class.
Exact component quantities are not published by the factory; when you place an order, our export team can confirm the kit contents against your current seals or cylinder part number before shipment.
Fitment Verification
Before ordering, confirm one of the following against your machine:
- The cylinder’s own part number (the 85804740 kit is listed together with OEM cylinder 85800500 on the loader bucket circuit);
- Or measure the cylinder: rod diameter and bore diameter of your bucket cylinder.
The DJF listing states 40 mm rod and 80 mm bore for this kit, with a high-grade polyurethane (PU), NBR and PTFE compound mix. These figures come from the manufacturer listing and were not found in independent public sources — treat them as reference values and verify them against your actual cylinder before purchase.
Manufacturer-listed, not independently verified: rod 40 mm / bore 80 mm; material composition PU + NBR + PTFE; alternative part number 83971963.
Factory Inspection & Packing
Every DJF seal kit is produced in our own factory: seals are formed from compound batches that are checked for hardness and tensile properties, then each kit is assembled against the part-number picking list and dimensionally gauged before it is sealed into its protective pack. Kits are labelled with the part number and shipped in reinforced cartons so that the sealing surfaces arrive clean and undamaged for a straight-forward workshop rebuild.
Wholesale Ordering
DJF sells the 85804740 kit factory-direct. Because we manufacture rather than re-trade, wholesale buyers get a single quality standard, stable supply for repeat orders, and the option of custom labelling or mixed-container consolidation with other Ford / New Holland seal kits.
Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)
MOQ: 5 kits. We accept trial orders from a single kit so a workshop can test fitment before committing, while tiered wholesale pricing applies at higher volumes. For the current MOQ, price breaks and lead time on the 85804740 kit, contact our export team directly.
