I was going to order the seal repair kit but upon further inspection I found that the rod has several tiny scratches and one big enough to catch on my fingernail - all in one small spot I hadn't noticed before. So I went online, found and ordered the newer version of the front mounted seastar ram for $380 + $12 shipping. Should be able to bolt it up, fill, bleed and go. The newer model is HC5345-3. I called Teleflex to make sure I could swap it for my HC5345. The Telelflex tech said the newer ram has improved seals to help prevent what apparently happened to mine.
