Ew. If it is a bad seal, does that mean it's trash?

well.. if you can pull it apart, you can more than likely find a seal.. i think most jack's cylinders are like a 1/2" bore, then if thats the case i could probably find something similar laying around traxxion

The sticker is all ripped up, I can't find a part # on it. Found this on google though, http://home.earthlink.net/~rob...1.gif looks like that.
