Are you sure it's the cylinder and not the hose? I had to replace one of my hoses, as it had started to craze, and was actually leaking fluid out through the cracks. I think those orange hoses are pretty low rung.

Try tightening all the nuts on the connections. That fixed mine.

There was a thread here a couple years ago someone gathered parts from different suppliers to rebuild a cylinder. Do a search & you may find it. There are no all inclusive kits for a rebuild that I know of.
I had one replaced just a couple of months back under warranty, took about an hour.Paul, Sue & Wonder Dog Zane

You should be able to remove the piston and take it to a Hydraulic repair shop. They can rebuild the cylinder with better seals that should last much longer then the original seals.
If I needed to rebuild one cylinder, I would probably get both rebuilt at the same time.
Good luck, and let us know how you fix this.David and Peggy
