it kind of looks like an "oil Lift Systems" kind of. is there any tag on the cross head or under the car on the plank? What type of original controller does/did it have?

Didn't see a tag on the cross head, haven't gotten under the car yet. I should have taken some pics of the controller, my bad. Ice cube relays on a swingout panel, Has a row of toggles on top - Ind, Insp, Leveling lockout ?, FE

You might get ahold of someone at Texacone or Gorman and send them the pictures. They might be able to help you identify the cylinder and tell you what seal you need.

Texacone 972.288.4404
Gorman 800.527.1719

Thanks, I've already been working with them. They don't know who is the manufacturer was either. We are probably going to have to match the seals that are in there. Thanks for the reply!
