Hi Jarrett,
Actually, I believe that if the hose breaks
anywhere the pressure will drop everywhere and
the two cylinders will both lower (more or less) together. I could be
wrong about that, but until an hydraulic expert tells me otherwise, that is what
my eyeball analysis indicates to me.

Ed, looks like you have it well in hand.. any plan however, for a hose
break [or leak over time] which would lower one cylinder but not the
other?

Good Idea, Lynn. Screw the hose in one side of the
aluminum block, up flow pushes through the restrictor and check valve, back
flow closes check valve and only flows through restrictor.
Shouldn't be that hard to make.
Thanks

Not a bad idea, Ben. They would slow down
the opening a bit, but would probably slow down the closing even
more. I'll check into it.

Assemble a swing check valve in parallel with your restrictor. So,
most of the up flow is unrestricted and any downflow closes the check
valve and goes through the restrictor.
Or machine the whole thing in a small block of aluminum.
