fountain steering ram

I need a fountain steering ram for a 32'
The ram would have the word FOUNTAIN etched in black.Not the latham ram.Mine is leaking from around the 90 fitting that the hose hooks to.

Yes I have.Twice now but I think the threads are just getting worn out because it just loosens back up and starts leaking.The fitting is also now turns past the centerline of the ram so I think the movement is what causes the fitting to losen back up.I was thinking of disassembling the ram and having the fitting welded in place but I would prefer to also have another ram just in case this does not work.Any thoughts?
