dont be so sure, cylinders themselves can bind, things like bent rods, dented tubes will do that. we have a garbage truck at work that had a cylinder that right from the day we got it appeared to stick at one point, the factory rep came out and they are pretty sure its got a dented tube, maybe dropped durring manufacturing etc, tommorow they are installing a new one
