I have been having some hydraulic fluid leak from the area where the steering arm and drag link are located. I removed the cover and fluid poured out of this area. I removed the plug from below the cover and nothing came out until i blew air back up the hole. The question I have is why is there fluid in this area other than the obvious reason the seals are leaking in the steering valve. Also does this oil drain back to the transmission or only fill this area and go no where else. I have replaced the upper seals in the steering valve last year. This didn't start leaking until I started using a bucket on my loader. I am guessing the extra weight if the bucket caused the lower seals to go bad. Could the oil in this area cause oil to come out where the tachometer cable mounts to the clutch housing.
