 Walkaway. Cheap is not cheap if there are issues. If the motor is in that state i cant imagine its gotten much love from its past owners.

which trim ram seals are leaking? I had some go on my old johno and was told i was lucky the ones on the hydrolic arm didnt go as combined with rust they had no hope of replacing them.
