Thanks! Yes, yours look very similar to mine, other than I don't have treaded, adjustable ends on mine. Where those off your AT?
I'm going to look up to see where a local hydaulic shop is, looks simple enough to repair. Mine have a leak, most likely in the wiper. I just discovered a wet area under one of my rams. I took my finger and wiped it along the rod, and sure enough, fluid.

MM did tell me that the caps might be loctited on so do not crush the barrel trying to remove the caps. Add a little heat and they should come off easy.
