I am really getting frustrated with this tractor. I recently replaced the PS pump after months of issues. Now with tractor front end lifted it will steer easy to the left but hard to the right. Once you set the tractor down it will not turn to the right at all. I have loosened the turnbuckle nut and slowly moved the actuator from one end to the other a half turn at a time. It gets really good to the left and is still horrible to the right. Fluid is full and been bled of air. There used to be a slight leak at the steering assist valve but I rebuilt it last year. New orings. Now no leaking there, but the front left steering ram has a slight leak from time to time. Is that my problem, it that the cylinder that turn the wheels to the right? Or do they work in tandem? I need to get this resolved asap. Is the steering assist cylinder shot? Any help is appreciated. Someone mentioned there may be something wrong with the steering gear box where it calls for fluid one direction, but blocks going the other way....
