560 Power Steering ??'s

Been going through a 560 that been setting for about ten years. Got almost everything fixed, but steering is hard both directions. Checked pressure, and have about 900psi full left, and maybe 1-200 at full right.I am thinking that staked nut may have come loose up in the valve in the front bolster. I know pressure is a bit low, but it should be equal both ways, right?
Jacked the front end up, and it turns easily with no binding, so I'm pretty sure I have a hydraulic problem.
Been almost 20 years since I last had one of the steer valves apart...anything to remember? Any other diagnostic thoughts? I'd like to confirm my suspicions before tearing tnto things.

Posted this about a month back, with no replies.....been to busy to work on it, so thought I'd try again here.
 

I don't know the answer, but maybe bumping this thread back to the top might catch the attention of someone who does?

Bump!
 
I had that problem a while back the tractor only gets used for grinding feed and a few loads of manure back then it was my dads and not used much anymore, but to make my long story short I found the trans filter had not been changed in years do to the not working to hard anymore changed it and wow it made a huge difference let me know maybe you already have been this route already.
