    What do you mean by steering unit?
    Do you mean the control block or the ram that pushes or something else?

      It's the unit at the bottom of the steering column......has 5 pipes running into it.

        I know the one you mean. You may find its the same as a Ransomes parkway 2250 like mine. It's Parker hydraulics.
        If you get a part number you should be able to cross check. If it's the same your options open as there are plenty of them about.

      Stupid question but have you checked the hydro tank is filled to the correct level? I know they do this when oil is running low!
      If it's not that and the unit is not cracked take it to a hydraulic repair company they may just be able to put new seals in it.

        Send me an email I've had a chat with my mate. It's 99% not the steering unit.
        Too much to write on here!
