I don't think such a kit exists. If the gun is new enough Sheridan will do it but chances are if it's old enough to need it they won't. But if you'll contact them they will tell you who they sold all the parts to the older guns to. Problem is they don't sell the parts, they want you to send the gun in. Bigger problem, you can buy a new one cheaper than they will fix the old one. That's what I ended up doing after going down the road you're on now.

How old is the gun? The Sheridan has been through a few iterations since 1949. Crosman now owns both Benjamin and Sheridan, and the internals for both are identical. Older guns need special tools and use lead compression seals in the valve. Newer guns have a cartridge type valve thats similiar to most other current pneumatic rifles made by Crosman. Parts are readily available for older guns, and Crosman can supply the parts for newer models. Your best bet is to contact either Ron Sauls at Bryan and Associates http://www.bryanandac.com/ or Rick Wilnecker at Precision Pellet  http://www.airgunshop.net/index.html. Either one will be able to reseal the gun. Cost should be about $40 including shipping to have it resealed proffessionally.

There was a fella in gun list, advertiseing that he does all kinds of work on the sheridan.Most likely he might know something about a kit.Just my 2 cents worth. :-)
