If you plan to hang on to your SSR for a long time and not have to worry about the top failing every time you use it, then this is the ultimate, preventative maintenance that also keeps up the value of your 'R.
Swapping the whole system as provided by Top Hydraulics saves a lot of labor because the system comes prefilled, with the wiring harness and sensors attached and ready to install in a plug-and-play fashion. There is no need to disconnect hoses and deal with hydraulic fluid. You can lay out the new system inside the storage compartment and take out the old system while installing the new one, as shown step by step in our DIY videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLly4CMbpk7ozyh3ktZpuRsVOFtz_JJBl1 All weak spots have been upgraded by Top Hydraulics: Rebuilt cylinders are better than new ones inside (due to far superior seals), the notoriously cracking hoses have been upgraded with much sturdier ones (hose material made in Germany according to Top Hydraulics' exacting specifications) and the pump has been fully rebuilt and upgraded. Shops can easily accommodate the job by putting two mechanics on it for a day, or you can do the job yourself with the help of a friend over a weekend. It takes one person who is able to stand inside the storage compartment and bend down to make the connections in the pump area, plus one person who can offer support from outside the car.
The Chevy SSR has eight hydraulic cylinders that actuate and lock the top and cover. This is a special core exchange option. Order a complete, upgraded Chevy SSR top hydraulic system from our inventory first, then return your old system to recover the deposit. Includes the full set of cylinders, the hydraulic pump unit PLUS a new full set of Top Hydraulics' upgraded hydraulic hoses. The top system ships filled, fully bled and with the travel sensors already mounted to the cylinders for easy and quick installation. All Top Hydraulics upgrades are made to be far superior to brand new parts from Chevy.
All seven seals in each cylinder are replaced and upgraded with far superior material. Of those seven seals, the wipers, rod seals, gland seals, piston seals, and cap seals also get upgraded to a superior shape. This makes our rebuilt cylinders far superior to brand new ones from the factory, on account of much longer service life under the same circumstances.
Top Hydraulics' upgrades include a 3-year warranty.

FedEx International Priority
For Customs clearance, you must declare a value on the package you are sending us. Please note: parcels with a declared value under US$750 enter the US without incurring taxes, duties or clearance fees. Considering that you are sending us broken parts for repair, it is most reasonable to declare a value under US$750. You can insure your parcel only up to the amount that has been declared as the value for customs, so your best insurance is good packaging. It is extremely rare that parts get lost on the way to us.
Please be sure to drain or cycle all fluid out of your parts, then wrap them in plastic, so that the parcel does not get soaked in oil. It is generally a good practice to double box pumps or sets of cylinders because heavy parcels take quite a beating in international transit unless you are using a premium carrier such as FedEx. Clearly, you don't want to just stick a part into a cardboard envelope without any further protection or buffering. Buffer your parcel well inside so that parts don't rattle around or the parcel gets crushed from others on top of it. Ideally, tape all around all surfaces of the parcel, which generally provides excellent protection against losing components that are trying to escape through small holes in the cardboard.
We use FedEx International Priority for almost all outbound international shipments, as they tend to offer the fastest and most secure service. Due to our shipping volumes, our rates for return shipping your parts via FedEx International Priority are typically equal to or cheaper than Postal Service. We cannot offer shipping labels for your shipment from you to us - you will have to shop around for the best option to ship your parts to us.
In the rare event that you feel you have to declare a value over US$750 on your parcel shipping to us, please understand that we will need to be reimbursed for any importation fees or duties incurred. You agree to this by accepting our terms and conditions when you place your order. On high value parcels, we are typically charged an Entry Prep Fee (currently about $25) plus 2.5% tax on the declared value of the package, there are oftentimes delays in customs, and it can take a while for us to receive the actual customs invoice.
Depending on the parts you are sending us, your customs declaration might say "hydraulic cylinder for repair" or "hydraulic pump" for repair. Please note that DHL does not like to carry hydraulic parts or used car parts in some countries. If your carrier asks for the "harmonized code or tariff" of the parts you are shipping, those are 841221 for linear actuators (cylinders) and 841360 for pumps.
At Top Hydraulics, we pride ourselves on providing new and remanufactured parts with unmatched quality and longevity.
It is very rare that our parts fail. Obviously, we are only human and we could have made a mistake or one of our components might indeed have had a hidden defect. Please contact us first when you suspect that you have a warranty case, so that we can try to help right away. It could be that the failure you are experiencing is caused by a different component or that the installation was not quite proper, so we like to be in touch first to go over the situation with you.
Unless stated otherwise, there is a 3 year warranty on all new and remanufactured parts provided by Top Hydraulics. This warranty is transferable. All parts manufactured or rebuilt by Top Hydraulics have unique markings, so there is no additional paperwork needed to transfer a warranty. The warranty does not cover labor, direct or consequential damages. The warranty is void when the parts have been abused or have been installed incorrectly, or when brake fluid or stop-leak additives have contaminated your hydraulic system..
You will have to send your failed part(s) back to Top Hydraulics for a warranty evaluation. In the extremely rare case of failure on rebuilds or new parts shipped or provided by Top Hydraulics, Top Hydraulics' warranty covers only parts and is limited to rebuilding the products previously shipped by Top Hydraulics, or replacing them, or refunding the rebuild fee at Top Hydraulics' discretion. If the failure was our fault, then we will refund reasonable shipping costs, as well.
