right seems ok , have no blown hoses or oil leaks.

Have you thought of moving it to Alberta?

The axle steering cylinders suspect?
Weird, but a plunger becoming disconnected from the cylinder rod?

No Don, just wonder what crops to set machine up for to get there?
Be a long drive!
Mechanic disconected each ram seperately& ran it both acted the same.

Just a recent Alberta political result joke Dak, a few will get it.

So if the steering cylinders seem fine is there some way the king pins in the axle may be binding under load?
Kinda grasping at straws here.

Is there a relief valve in the steering Hyd circuit that is starting to fail? If the king pins are not binding and the Rams move well when not under load I would nearly bet your balls Dak that it will be were your problem is.

Don you were right on the money, they had only disconected the left side yesterday before daylight stopped them, today the right side done
& found the piston disconnected from (cylinder) sharft made a mess in workshop too.

Aussie just go carefull were you go betting with my privates!!!
