Image? Assuming tilting off axis clockwise relative to the tractor v. just shifting to the right? And when not loaded with an implement sits level relative to the tractor?

Do you have rear remote hydraulics and a hydraulic tilt cylinder installed? If so the system is leaking and letting the cylinder length vary.

To test set the level you want, the disconnect both hoses from the valve using the quick disconnects (that I assume you have installed). If no drift then you can hook them back and prove that the drift starts again.

There is a double pilot operated valve that can be installed to allow you to adjust the position but then it magically locks it in place until you intentionally move it again.

it tilts with or without implement. I don't have a pic.
Given available information, it would appear that you need to adjust the leveling assembly on the right side upper lift arm to level the lift arms.

If your running hydraulic tilt and it's moving on it's own then you have an issue with that system.
Does you tilt cylinder have a load check on it?
