Raymond 31G DR-93-15925
Raymond steering jams only when the Hyd. oil gets hot.

Check your bearing thrust on caster wheel assembly. I had the same issue and the bearing thrust was completely damaged.

You changed the Hydraulic steer motor? That usually goes. Are the radial rings worn? Drive unit could drag. Caster wheel pivot brg can seize too
