250 Diesel
New to this forum and new owner of a used Massey 250 Diesel, Couple of questions, the steering has about a 1/4 turn of play in it and it only has 2660 hours. Is there a fix to this or can I add shims to the gear box or any other fixes for taking some of this play out?

Second of all, it has factory internal hydraulics and a rear remote. I bought a used 232 loader and wondering if I can plumb into the tractor instead of using the external pump that came with the loader?

What type of power steering do you have on it?

I have the system with the hydraulic cylinders at the front corners. No power steering pump

The free play might be a part of the power steering, du you have the servo valve just below the dashboard 8n the steering column?

I know my 263 performs really well in the steering department when it’s 100% air free. I keep having leaks pop up here and there and I have to always check level prior to operation. If the oil gets low or aerated I lift the front, add oil, steer back and forth fully, add oil, repeating over and over until it’s good.

Just checking back in to see where the servo valve is exactly and what it looks like?
