steering cylinder leak

[250exc]

2011 John Deere X720SE is starting to leak at the steering cylinder. Is this a resealable unit? Thanks for any info.

Any shop that does hydraulic repairs should be able to reseal it...... JD may even have a kit for it if you want to DIY it.....

JD just shows the complete cylinder with hoses for $333.11. If google is correct, the cylinder needs to be cut open to reseal then welded back together. I have a shop 12 miles away, will check with them.
