Replace it, Mark. Rebuilding might work OK, but replacement is a
permanent repair. BTW, after reassembly, totally flush out the
hydraulic system with new fluid. The pitting came from moisture in
the system that will immediatly begin attacking the replacement
cylinder if the fluid isn't also replaced with fresh, uncontaminated
fluid.
