Hello all, I bought a 1978 JD 950 with a great bend loader and I'm wondering about adding power steering. I'm a hydraulics novice so I'll try to explain what I'm thinking. The loader has an Aico controller with a capped power beyond valve. Can I use the PB outlet to a Parker hydraulic control valve then plumb from there to a Hoye DIY power steering cylinder assembly and then to the transaxle? I'm thinking I can adjust the control valve to get the steering I want without losing too much loader power. I want to try to avoid cutting into any hard lines. Like I said I'm no hydraulics expert so I could be all wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
