      Does anyone have the problem of water getting in the hydraulics for the rear legs? I have replace the plugs in the tanks which made no difference.

        Go to any auto parts store and get RTV silicone sealer for around the base of the pump. I don’t know if Proflex is meant for sealing ATF. My biggest complaint is the large gap that the tank bowing down created (as shown in my photos). Before you put it all back together put fluid in the tank and cycle the pump to flush the bad oil out of the pump itself. I also used air to push the cylinder all the way out and all the way back in while not connected to push out as much bad fluid as possible.
