Convertible Cylinders - Re-buildable?


Hey guys got the conv. pump running but that just showed me 1 of the cylinders is leaking. Are these repairable or are they sealed units that cannot be rebuilt?

FYI, its leaking out of the top. The ram is bent (proabably by the last owner over extending it) and it must have popped the seal that the top.....

any ideas or I am I replacing them ?

Thanks

Honestly I think your only option is replacing the cylinders, especially if you have already determined that you have a bent ram.  I have never seen rebuild kits for these, or even seals.  I think all the big suppliers carry the replacement cylinders, at least they did the last time I looked.

If you want to try used ones for cheap, send me a PM.
