First off I really appreciate any advice...I Need to help my dad remove a boat engine soon (yea its true: Bust Out Another Thousand haha), so really need to get this problem solved.

The machine is in good working order other than the tilt lowering with lifting and lowering the arms. This started soon after lifting something extremely heavy, (this skid steer is used for my boat/rv storage and I needed to help a customer raise his 5th wheel off his truck that had the jacks broken...it was a triple axle monster and really pushed the 873 to the limit).

Could I have blown out the seals in the tilt cylinders causing them to bypass fluid? If so, any way to tell which one it is? thankful for any suggestions.
