1066 steering motor leak

DeWayne Utrup · Feb 25, 2015

My steering hand pump is leaking profusely out the side of the case. Now it was fine but I am just finishing the install of a new clutch and TA. I also rebuilt the MCV with new springs, seals and gaskets. Upon starting the tractor I tried the brakes and turned the wheels fully both directions then I drove it a bit without issue until we noticed the oil leaking from the steering motor. I doubt this is a coincidence so what have I messed up? I have inspected the case seal on the motor and it looks fine.

Well did ya check MCV pressure or just STUFF the spring kit in and call it good ???? As for the leak it more then likely is the seal under the steering wheel and easy fix . The hardest part is getting the steering wheel off , here ya need two 1/4x28- 6-7 inch grade 8 bolts a 1/4 x28 bottoming tap and a steering wheel puller . But you need to check MCV pressure and it needs to be around 265 -275 psi.
