Sixto,
If they are leaking, the struts are probably bad; that is usually the test, as I understand it.

You are right in suggesting that that may not be the entire problem...

I empathize with you, Tony, I have a failed system too, but not my struts and not my accumulators, as I have decent height, and decent ride, no leaks, but no levelling. Pump ($$$) or valve rebuild (less $$$).

I'm sure many others have been here before as well. The cost of owning a well-built machine
