Hydraulic leveling pump leaking

I have an '83 300TD and the hydraulic leveling pump is leaking. It looks like it's coming from between the two halves of the pump. Does anybody know if there is an o-ring or some seal I can replace inside the pump?

Rebuild kit available soon

I am currently working on a hydraulic pump rebuild kit that will contain all o-rings and main shaft seal (this is a problem most people don't know about - when seal leaks hydraulic fluid is pumped into the engine!). Kit will come with instructions and will be in the $50 to $60 range. It is one to two weeks from release. Kent

Hydraulic leveling pump leaking

Thanks for the info ,my pump is leaking out onto the engine, I didn't even think about it leaking in TO the engine. I'm going on a long trip this weekend and carrying a lot of weight. I'm worried about the hydraulics losing pressure and sagging. After my post I was able to find some seals but no technical information. I guess I'll just wing it and hope the thing doesn't fly apart and shoot little springs everywhere when I disassemble it. I'm really glad your coming out with a kit and instructions. If I had more time I would sure order it from you. I really appreciate your devotion to these great cars and getting some good service information out to folks so we can keep them running.
