Default Re: Convertible top hydraulics maintenance
I noticed this on the floor in my garage below this rubber hose that drains water from inside the gas cap door.
It was hydraulic oil running down the outside of this hose.
It turns out my right main hydraulic cylinder for the top finally began to leak oil and it was running down on the tube and dripping on the floor.
Good news is I have 2 new main cylinders shipping from “Top Hydraulics” and will arrive in 2 days.
I’m bringing them to the Ozarks Event in a few weeks and I'm going to have them installed by an expert who is also attending the event.

I’ll send my 2 cylinders removed back to Top Hydraulics for a refund of the core deposit I paid.
I spoke with the owner himself today and we discussed this forum as well as the many Facebook groups for Crossfire owners
Top Hydraulics has been known to be the best source to replace our Roadster Hydraulic Cylinders for many years
