If the cylinder has top return lines, then it is simply a matter of lifting to full height removing the return lines, lowering and then lfting again and see how much oil you get out from the return pipe on the cylinder. Bearing in mind there should normally be only a small amount of oil and a large amount indicates a leak and will tell you if the cylinder(s) are leaking internally.
