Nice that everything is tight for you. I have quite a bit of creep in just about every function. I imagine the outriggers just need new seals. The boom functions, and "hoist" are probably slipping by at the valves. I suppose it might clear up a little with use as seals get softened a bit, but if the spools are worn then I'm just stuck with the creep. I would imagine replacing the valves with new would cost more than another whole H3...
