Rebuild the cylinder

tilt drift has a long and complicated T/S proucdure. KISS. tear down and inspect cyl. if this is not done you will chase youre tail on the rest of it.

Agreed, start with the cylinders, most of the time they are at fault. Seals are pretty cheap and not too hard to install.

I had an 863 that drifted down and wouldn't hold under load. It ended up being a leak on the backside of the control valve. As others have stated you should start with the tilt cylinder but if you're losing any hydraulic fluid you might want to check the backside of the control valve too.
