Help me figure out this power steering!

Ron,

You remember what John Deere that was?

No, sorry, that was a long time ago. If you have a picture of your tractor front end(set a ruler in the pic for reference) I could probably point you in the direction of some surplus center parts that would allow you to re-create the the JD type. Basically you would need to build a new sliding draglink and some brackets to bolt the parts to your machine, but it would not alter the tractor permanently/be reversible if you didn't like it...

I had the steering unit like the one you have and it was for the JD 850,950, and maybe the 1050. It was the add on kit. I don't think if you got a JD from the MFG with PS it was the same as the add on. It seems to me it might not of been in the parts manual.

I'm all most sure you make that work. Lee Johnston

I didn't snap a picture but my drag link is 27 inches long and has roughly 4 inches of travel.

Thanks for all the replies. I believe I will find something.
