Ok on the grease fittings does it say approx how much grease pressure needs to be applied?
I think (hope) I can get parts to rebuild from a hyd shop. Maybe the guy on e bay can get them for me. My local Volvo guy said he has rebuild parts but I'm betting he wont sell them to me, he probably will want to install the parts. He is kinda a pain sometimes so he may not do either because I didn't bring the boat up there and let them do everything. I still may have to carry it up there and let him press the pins out, but I'll give it a try first.

on the amount of pressure to the grease fittings, I'd guess a whole freaking lot, plus heat if needed,. it appears that there are plugs and screwws that close in the outward path of the pins. If you can come up with any part numbers let me know, I have a good line on Volvo parts

I have a customer that owns a Texaco Express Lube and he has grease guns where he can turn up the grease pressure so he's going to let me try.
If your manual has a parts breakdown on those pins: I can only see 1 bolt that holds these pins in. Can you scan or take a pic and send it to me? If not just look at it and tell me if there is another screw or fastener that holds each pin in. I don't see how I can use heat on the pins, the only way I could get direct heat on them would be on the exposed end (inside the boat) and there's not much room. If I put heat on them they will expand and I will have to let them cool again so that kinda defeats the purpose of heating it doesn't it?

Spare
I got the hyd hoses off upper 1 in way of the plastic (yellow covers). Removed the yellow covers that keep water out where the grease fittings are. The grease fittings aren't there I guess volvo repair shops have them, they don't come installed behind the yellow plastic covers. I looked at the schematics you linked but I don't see them for purchase. I was going to try to get the pins out myself but without the fittings I'm dead. I talked to the local volvo guy and he wouldn't give me a estimate to push the pins out and rebuild the hyd cyls.

should be hard to thread some fittings in the holes, just pisk some up at teh local auto store, I even saw soem at Lowes. My buddy has the manual, just haven't gotten up with him yet. In the scematic, I saw there are plugs(screws) on the outboard side, have you removed them?

Yea that's the yellow you see in the pics, removed them yesterday and they were so brittle they broke to pieces. That's what I was talking about the grease fitting weren't there. They are already threaded but I'm sure they are metric and look fine thread. Also they look to be about equal to 3/8" - 1/2" dia.
If youre friends book spells them out let me know and I'll try to find them locally but I probably will have to order them
