Parts Help for older IH tractor

[Kernopelli]

I was hoping one of the dealers or forum members may be able to help me with locating a part. I am looking for a hydraulic adapter for an IH 254 (it also fits the IH 244 and CIH 245/ 255). It is a block and spacer needed for running auxiliary hydraulics.The CIH website shows it as parts number(s);
1288103C1 ADAPTER, hydraulic (NSS)
1288098C1 SPACER

When I installed my loader, I simply spliced the pressure line coming off the pump to run the hydraulic flow through the control valve. I wasn't aware this part existed at the time. Now I am wanting to install a power steering kit and would like to use this adapter to both make a cleaner install and to avoid having to purchase a priority valve. Any help or input would be appreciated.

Thanks. I had done a search at Messicks site when I first started looking but I did it using the parts # for the adapter/spacer "kit" (as shown on the CIH webparts finder item # 1288102C92) and at Messicks it came up as a New Holland roller kit. I didn't do an individual parts search for the numbers I had posted in my original message.
Thanks, I'll give them a call and see if the parts are still available.

Darryl,
Did you do the power steering add-on? If so, wondering where you got he kit or if you put it together yourself? I'm getting too old to wrestle with my non-power steering 254. Thanks.
