Does anyone have experience replacing the main lift cylinder on the X150 convertible? I have a 2007 XKR and the left side lift cylinder ruptured. There appears to be a clearance issue when I try to remove the pin at the base of the cylinder and I am reluctant to loosen any mounting bolts on the hinge. next challenge will be the hydraulic lines, but at the moment I am stuck removing the pin after I remove the C clip.

TopHydraulics did a YouTube video on replacing the cylinders on a 07 XK.

I am thankful that this car has a hydraulic top, which so far has worked flawlessly!

Talked to TopHydraulics
I talked to TopHydraulics and they confirmed the need to lift the top hinges to provide adequate clearance for removing the pins on the lift cylinder. I will try to do this over the weekend when I have another set of hands available and possibly video the process for supplementing the one from TopHydraulics.
