Is Upgrading to YM336 from YM276 worth it?

The YM276D in the barn has great power steering for those folks talking about power steering.

That's interesting. Do you have a picture of the power steering? I'd like to know what kind it is.

I am out of town, but does this picture show the power steering?

Yes.

And that's not the same Dealer Installed Accessory shown in rScotty's recent post and also described in this recent thread.

If yours doesn't dribble after all these years it's a better system than the dealer version which is an orphan and is nearly unrepairable. (as described in that second link).

The distinctive difference is: on the dealer version, the drag link goes into an aluminum casting several inches long, while yours goes into something only a couple of inches long.

I started a new thread with the pictures taken of the power steering.
