Tractor Steering Cylinder Leaking; Repairing a John Deere 5520 Steering Cylinder

This is a hands-on repair video from an owner mid-project, tackling a leaking steering cylinder on a John Deere 5520. It focuses on one specific hang-up: removing a stubborn tie rod end that has nothing to grip, and shows a workaround using a box wrench, washer, and vise to free it in seconds. Best for owners already elbow-deep in this exact repair, not a general overview.

Posted by the TheFritz423 channel, an owner working through the repair on his own tractor rather than a dealer or professional mechanic.
