I'm not at all familiar with that tractor, but many similar systems pipe return oil from the steering circuit through a pressure...

Now I'm curious about the line to the PTO valve and your description of the noise it makes. That can't be right. Does that line get warm...

Just throwing some ideas into this. Did you notice any foaming of the oil at the beginning of all this or just since the noise went away...

How does the fork fasten to the cross shaft? Pinch bolt with a dimple in the shaft? Keyway with key stock? Roll pin (hope not)? If you...
