Wow -- 88mm -- the pics don't depict the sheer size of that assembly. Quite a hefty machine.

How do you install the seals? Are they split? These pictures don't do the size of these things justice.

The pressure bands are boiled in hydraulic oil to make them pliable and than stretched over the rod. They shrink bank down as they cool

I've used that trick with seals before. Except mine was just a cup of warm water not boiling hydraulic oil lol

Do you need some type of compressor over those seals to install the ram?

Nope. You make handles out of ribbon and drag them on
