DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO APPROACH THIS PROBLEM?
THIS DIRECTIONAL VALVE IS IN THE CENTER OF THE TRACTOR
WITH LINKAGES GOING TO IT.
 
Got to be leaking by within the cylinders or at the valve. I'd start with the cylinders. just my thoughts gobble
 
If there is no external leakage and the interlock valves on the valve sections are working properly the oil cannot get back through the valve without the engine running and a circuit activated. If the cylinder packings are bad the oil will bypass the packing and since there is less volume on the rod side the pressures will equalize and the loader will stop after a few inches of leakdown. I have seen this many times in my career working on Case BH/LDRS. If it leaks down clear to the ground it indicates a valve issue but the interlocks are not sealing off properly. How fast does it leak down?
 

There is a leak on the right side of the bucket ram.
It won't lift and curl the bucket at the same time.
and if I try to lift it after I curl the bucket, the bucket curls down.

I know I have to fix the leak, so I'm going to do that first.
But it seems that there is more of a problem than just that leak.
