I've tried three different fluids, 10W, ATF and hydraulic fluid. All the same. Mine seems to be doing it when you turn left not right which was more obvious when I disconnected the cooler and right ram. It's gotta be in the box. Guess I'll bite the bullet and swap it out, at least the fender comes off easy.

After more experimenting and speaking with a knowledgeable heavy truck mech, it was the ram on the right side.
Apparently a common problem in the real world including Massey-Fergueson tractors.

I swapped it out but I will rebuild it. Rebuilding hydraulic cylinders happens to be one of my services. I have a welding/machine shop business.
