I think Bob has it pretty well nailed on the head. First thing that came to my mind was the packing nut unscrewed itself in one of the cylinders. Happens a lot with the older Du-als. It that is the problem, Baum Iron in Omaha has the seals. Put the nut back on with loc-Tite and it won't happen again. If you don't use Loc-Tite, it WILL happen again. Pulling the cylinders apart isn't rocket science.
To find out if this is the problem lower the loader way down and disconnect the lift hose from each cylinder. Then with those hoses disconnected, try to force the loader down just like you are normally lowering it. Just a bump or two on the hydraulic lever is all it takes. If oil shoots out of one of the cylinders through the hole that the hose was disconnected from without the cylinder moving, then the seals are leaking in that cylinder. It wouldn't hurt to lay a heavy rug or something like that over the cylinders so you don't shoot oil all over the place. It's a kind of a messy test, but you'll find out if you have a problem in this area real quick. Jim
