White 2-62 backhoe problems

I replaced all the hoses at the base of the boom after blowing a hose and loosing all the hydraulic oil last weekend. I finally got one stump dugout today. The swing cylinder is leaking out the top real bad. Are parts available to repair this? I think this repair might be above my pay grade, it is big and heavy and looks like it's not a job for a amateur. This old girl has lots of problems, I think it needs the valve for the bucket on the loader rebuilt and the swing arm settles down rather quickly along with the swing cylinder leaking and traveling when running it's gonna be a major undertaking for me to fix. Sorry, it's 8:30 and I've been up since 3am, getting too tired to think or type. Are parts available and where are they? Thanks, Chris

OK, I was half asleep when I posted this last night, Sorry, I should have just waited till this am. The dipper stick settles down rather quickly, I called it the swing arm. When I was pushing the dirt back into the hole, the boom would move either left or right on its own. The cylinder shafts had rust on them and I emery papered them smooth again, but boom and dipper stick cylinder both leak. Are repair kits available for the cylinders? Thanks, Chris
 
Chris,
I have a parts book on the 1615 backhoe. I could sent copies to you on the cylinders. The parts book give dimensions of 'O' rings, nt just the part numbers. Years ago I found a place in Elburn Illinois that rebuilt a kinds of cylinders.
 
I have a Massey backhoe with a very similar swing cylinder it too migrated side to side quickly and leaked out the top badly took it off this summer and went to the local hydraulic shop they have put all new seals in it common off the shelf parts and parts not all that expensive but a little labor intensive if I remember correctly it was over $500 but no more expensive hydraulic fluid leaking and now only moves very slowly to side which I think the valve is to blame for that
