Default Convertible top RH ram need O Rings
I need to replace the O Rings on the right hand top lift cylinder. It is the type where the bottom hose is held in with a clip. I am having a hard time finding O Rings that will fit. Anybody out there have any luck?

On the most part we just send the rams out to be rebuilt. This link will have information that should help. If it is just an "O" ring for the fitting just go to NAPA or any hydraulic shop.

Are the rams difficult to remove? Is there a "how-to" posted that's easily found?

Removal is the Sticky HowTo.

You can get new ones reasonable from TopHydraulics. They just did my latch. Many others have used them as well.
