[AT] hyd cylinder different inlet threads?

[Len Rugen]

This was fun, until I tried 3 places today and struck out.  I have corn in bags and rain the the forecast for Wednesday.  At this point, I'm going to return the cylinder and try to get one with friendly NPT threads :-)

Probably O-Ring Boss.  ORB  You can get an adapter.  Take a look at 
Surplus Center's website, they have examples of the sizes. Discount 
hydraulic hose also does..
