    Putting a new conv top on my '68 Skylark at the end of the month.

    The good news.....The pump, hoses, frames etc are in good shape:)

    The bad news is I have 1 leaky lift cylinder:(
    We've tried the additives to seal the leak but with no success. I might as well replace the other one while we're at it.

    Looking to get some advice on where to buy them (and where not to!) based on your experiences.

    Absolutely have no issues purchasing parts from the USA, but if my fellow Canadians have a recommendation that's north of the border, I'm all ears!

    Thanking you all in advance..........Mark

    If your a BPG member you get a discount at Year One, I got mine there and they work great.
    Be sure and remove your lines before you place the order, you may find that they are so brittle you can't get them off without cracking.

    There is a company selling on Ebay...Tamraz's Auto Parts...I just picked up a set of convertible cylinders for my 72...great service and they were only $220/pair shipped. :TU:
