1 stuck jug

[lincolnwood]

I have a `01 ZR 800 that I seized up this weekend. The pistons move inside the jugs but I can`t get one jug off. i pulled the first jug off by hand, the other one not so lucky. Has anyone had this problem, and do you have any tips on removal?

have u hit it with a rubber hammer?
one quick rap should do it.
if no rubber hammer a chunk of 2x4 on jug and hit 2x4 with hammer

I forgot that I have a rubber mallet. But I did try the small sledge and block of wood, no go. Right now I have the studs and bolt holes soaking in kroil oil in hope that it will finally soak in an loosen up. Thanks Ezra

I had a cylinder so stuck on a sled this year I had to take a sledge hammer and a board to get it off and that was the good cylinder!! Never had one so stuck.
