Power stearing

Right Chris, all you have to do is wire him $550 to Turkey.

Thanks Chris. I've been lurking around here for awhile so I think I know what you mean - And that is/was a nice looking Ford.

I'd rather stay a little closer to home than Turkey -especially since I'm not yet entirely convinced I want to do this. It's more a convenience thing than any real problem.

I've emailed Hoye Tractor and they indicated an awareness of retrofit kits but do not carry them. Have also contacted Tullahoma Tractors but still too soon to expect a response from them.

At one time Len Shaffer had a retrofit kit that he priced to me for $750. Not sure he's on here anymore but is on Yahoo's Yanmar site. I have emailed him but don't have a response yet.

That kit that is coming from turkey is being sold at 'state side' dealers. I've seen plenty of those around.. so someone over here is selling them as I don't think every one i see was bought direct from turkey.. etc. (grin).

Here's a link to a guy on ebay that sells a similar kit.. this auction i sended.. but he sells these kits all the time. Took me a while to find the link.

Thanks, Soundguy. I appreciate the effort. I'm impressed by the folks on this forum. They really go the extra mile. Not like some of the (unmoderated) Usenet forums (fora) I visit. There, it seems like a large segment of the populace are more interested in mounting verbal assaults than offering any real assistance.

Again, thanks! The power steering issue in one I'll most likely drop. The money will be better spent on something that more directly helps to get the job done than simply kow-towing to operator (me) laziness.
