Did it start doing that after you changed the hydraulic filter in the rear end?

check the left filter in the belly of the rearend and make sure the screen was put back in the end of the filter or that its an agco filter of the correct length. I havealso seen the steering cylinder seals leak by internally. Also saw a 7050 one time the front spindles froze up sitting over the winter. It was a mower tractor and sat out year round.

Do you keep the spindles well greased? We drug in a 7040 that the front axle was essentially locked up, had to jack it up, grease, and wail on it with the sledge to get it to come loose. That guy didnt grease anything. :(
