Kubota BX1500 no steering

[dtreid]

Have a kubota bx1500
Steering would only work if I turned the wheel quickly and tended to wander quite a bit

When restarted no steering at all.....bypassed the 3pt hitch in the up position and steering started working again.

Began to slowly return to only working if the steering wheel was moved quickly.

Now it won't turn at all.

Any suggestions?

The ram seals for steering need to be replaced. Been there done that

Yep rebuild the front steering cylinder inspect it for egging in the middle of the cylinder sleeve, if it is replace it.

Replaced the seals and it acts pretty much the same....

Replaced the seals and it acts pretty much the same....

The seal on the middle of ram shaft that separates high pressure from low pressure must be leaking by, even with new seal kit.
