seals...

HI,look in the yellow pages of almost any large city,and you will find a business such as hydraulic jack repair. they will have the parts,if you can remove the seals,and can find a part # take it to NAPA,they are USUALLY very knowledgable on replacement parts.

I replaced the "O" ring seal on my engine hoist with one I picked up at the hardware store. It still leaks and guess it always will. Same for my floor jack.
