Yes, it sucks. If the system is salvageable its best to get it working right. The majority of "converters" haven't liked the results (myself included when I tried air shocks on my wagon).

So we use web addresses for forum names now.......
It is not hard to get the wagon SLS working and used parts had be found cheaply both here and on ebay. The parts that almost always are the failure point are the accumulators. They provide the dampening for the ride [ie: act like the shocks] They are only about a $100 bucks each [2]. I've never known anybody happy with a converted SLS system as far as it working anywhere near the level of a properly operating system. AND, it isn't a complicated system. Also the high pressure hydraulic hose that runs from the pump across the front of the engine likes to burst if original. Most other items rarely fail. No use having one of these wagons without that system working. **edit** BTW, you might want to give just a little bit more info than "Help". What is your failure mode? How does the wagon act? Does it move fluid? Are their leaks? Maybe we should have just replied "OK".......

Jimmy, where are you getting your accumulators? I can't find em for less than $135. For the M-100's, the fronts are $155 and I need 3!
