The drop collects at the yellow arrow. Left the arms up for a couple of days and when I came back it was lowered and there were 2 drops instead. Had wiped the entire cylinder down before raising to make sure that was the only spot.

Boom seal went bad.

First time tractor owner. Wasn't sure if those things would dry rot. My tire sidewalls are cracking up pretty good, got a set of Goodyear R14s on the way.
