I had some hydraulic fluid puddling around the left side down lock pin for a while.  Wiped it up and decided to watch it as I think pulling the seal out would be a major bitch because of the strong spring contained therein.  Seeped a bit more, than stopped altogether.  My guess a bit of  junk under the O-ring that wriggled loose eventually. 
 
Given the possible difficulty of replacement, you might consider just watching for a while.  Sometimes these things heal themselves. 
 
Sometimes.
 
Only  schematic I am aware of is in the build  manual which shows some cross sectional views.

LML folks,
 
Do you have a schematic for an IV-P MLG actuating cylinder that you are willing to share?
 
I need to replace the seal on the right side down-lock pin and would like to be sure I have the necessary parts and tools before I start into it. Any advice most appreciated!
 
Thanks,
 
Bob Pastusek
