05 vert! Found out the passenger side hydraulic cylinder is sluggish. The other side works great. I think I'll just replace the one. Any thoughts on this? I'm a fair mechanic, but never worked on a top mechanism before.
I tried bleeding it out after filling and refilling, but the cylinder seems bad.

Ordered the USA made one for 119 off Ebay. 5 yr. warranty. Won't get it til at least Aug. 6th.
