It is probably down on fluid , had same issue fixed by just adding fluid , slow leaks at cylinder seals , but happens slowly.. why change everything  . Just top off  . Despite advice about spraying mounts with WD 40, that eats the rubber . Caveat emptor . 

What IS the correct fluid comes up ? Brake fluid or PS/ ATF . Still have a confused recollection . Too many cars in past . 

PS/  ATF is essentially 10 weight oil .

I'm not sure how much you plan on doing yourself, but the parts should be fairly easy to find.  Even when I was living in Huntsville Al (I'm now in Rochester NY), I found a shop that replaced the lift cylinders and hoses (motor was OK) for my 62 300..  The parts were $395 and 3 hours labor.
