I think Ware Machine Works made their own cylinders. They are still in business.
The seals in those cylinders are pretty basic and you should be able to get them at most any hydraulics shop.

I have found a good source for hydraulic cylinder kits here: https://www.baumhydraulics.com/home.php?xid=6b69d50d7f8c61a7375bd77e2623bcc9

Are they cup type seals? It's been years since I had one apart and can't recall. You might be able to replace them with a more modern style seal, like a fabric reinforced neoprene.

It's the end ones that are leaking they look like a flat leather seal I was thinking of trying a newer style neoprene like you said.
