I've been just living with some droopy cylinders on my old ASV (rubber-tracked loader). The tendency for them to let gravity win has survived through a couple of my admittedly-amateur rebuilds. Is this more frequently caused by a leaky control valve, vs piston seal? (There are no external leaks.)
I was thinking I could clumsily verify this by joining hoses from the extend/retract ports, raising the loader-arms and then loading it to see if one or both drift when isolated, but I'd rather cut to the chase if it's likely the joystick, and see about rebuilding THAT.
