Ford 3000 3 point problem

I need some assistance with a 3 point issue. I bought this tractor and everything seemed to work fine. I did a complete service including full fluid changes. Everything was clean and spotless inside. I put everything back together then used it for a few days with a rear blade then one morning the 3 point wouldn?t lift. I took the hydraulic assembly all apart and replaced all the o rings even though they looked fine. Verified the screen was clean, took all the valves apart and verified they move nicely. I reassembled the unit and the 3 point shuddered but lifted. I bled the pump and it made no difference. It went up and down just not as smooth as I?d like. Used it for a few days then parked it with the blade up. Over 2 days it crept to the ground. Without touching the control lever I started the tractor and it immediately lifted up. I parked it in the shop and lowered the blade, now it won?t lift again. Any clues where to start?
 
Thanks. I?ll try and figure out how to move the post.
I?m not much of a computer guy. Things have to get
pretty bad before I will try and post something:)
