129 top hydraulics

I just finished replacing all 11 actuators on my '99 sl500. Not too bad of a job, just took a long time to figure out how to get to all of them. I was on the Mercedes list and was given information about tophydraulicsinc.com in OR. They have a great DIY section that show how to get to everything and also rebuild the cylinders. I was extremely happy with their very quick service and excellent product. They are very reasonably priced. I had a few problems and sent emails for assistance and got almost instant replies. No financial interest but highly recommend them if you have hydraulic problems. I found that at least 4 cylinders were leaking although there was so much fluid in some places it was hard to tell which were bad.

That's a job I'm not looking forward to. I had the front cylinders rebuilt and installed them last fall & I'm just waiting for the next shoe to fall... Then I'll do the rest at one time.

Yeah, I've heard nothing but good things about the company you mentioned and will likely use them when I need to do the rest of my cylinders.
