We bought out T40E for cheap and think it has had a lot of work done to it=/ What oil did you use? Also where is the cap for it located on your lift? Thank you!! David

I have the oil thing figured out, but now I'm looking for a seal kit for the cylinder and a few helpful hints on changing the cylinder seal.
