Why does the 3 point lift on my 2260 long tractor not working and how can I fix it?

I inherited my father's 2260 Long Tractor after he passed away. About 10 years ago the the 3 pt lift was operating but was a little slow once I started using it, it would work fine again.

Now 10 years later, it won't operate. I can physically lift it up and down by hand. I changed out the hydraulic/transmission fluid. I cleaned the filter screen. I took the lift handle off by the seat and inspected the key was still intact and in place.

    My Guess...

    The cylinder seals went bad, let in water and the piston is rusted within the cylinder. Buy a new cylinder or have the current cylinder inspected by a local Hydraulic shop to see if it can be repaired.
