Dozer will not turn unless under load.

Originally would only turn right, but after replacing clutches, brake bands, and brake drum, turning in either direction does not work.

I’ve checked adjustment of linkages, brake adjuster and hydraulic pressures

Pushed it up against dirt to check clutches and both release. Machine can turn while under load.

Any ideas on what to check next?
