Been having problems with rear wheels and front wheels going out of line, worst when your turning left, the rear wheels go out and only way to straighten them up is steer but when you steer, front won't move till rear is lined up again. Did rear ram steering seals, and sensors and still made no difference. Machine is Yr 2008. Sometimes front wheels will wander out of line with a bucket of grain. Asked dealer but they hadnt heard of problem before. Any body shine any light? Thanks

seems odd, is there like an orbital unit that directs all oil flows perhaps this is leaking?
I've got the same problem om my manitou your orbital unit is not the problem as i have renewed mind which didnt make any difference your problem is in your rear steering ram the seal in the centre is let oil past Iv been speaking to a manitou mechanic and he talk ed me throw the reasons why this happens i actually got both my ram s resealed but my mechanic says they prob didnt do the middle seal hope this helps as iv spoke to 10 different men all with diff ideas none of which work

We went through all of the above problems ,and attempts at diagnosis, with a 525-67. When steering left with a bit of speed, it appeared as if the seals in the rear steering rams just let go and allowed it to go to full lock. It was the same in reverse, except that it was when turning right and it was the front axle!
At the time the tyres were very bald and we were loathed to buy tyres before it was sorted however, we relented and put tyres on it. That sorted it out! Even now if one tyre has gone slightly soft the problem resurfaces but to a lesser degree.

Had same issue with 526 especially if carting couple of bales on the front come round corners and realise it’s not following round

Put a thin blade between sensor and axle on rear. Then turn both ways, full lock each way and hold for 10 seconds each way.
Bald tyres definitely make it worse ours is getting well down and it's getting worse for it now especially with a full bucket on
Ok thanks for that. Will give it a go, what will this do? Thanks
