Front End Loader 1963 Ford 4000

Help, I recently replaced the pressure and return hydraulic lines going to the right lift arm ram (they were leaking). Now the bucket lifts unevenly. The bucket tilt function is good and strong, it was all working fine till the hoses popped, no reason to think anything got bent. The bucket lift feels good and strong too, just uneven, meaning the right arm lags behind the left. Any suggestion? And thanks.

Were the hoses you used for replacement the same inside diameter as the old ones? They could allow more (or less) flow on one side than the other. You may need to replace your other old hoses to achieve equality.

"......fine till the hoses popped......." Explain.

If the hoses popped, then the piston seals may have failed in one cylinder causing it to lift unevenly.
