841 power steering rebuild help needed

Hi,

841, was leaking fluid out f the "breather" below
the control valve.

Ultradog was correct- the lower seal was trashed.

So was the steering column ;(

see pics

I could eihter replace, have it welded up and
ground down,. or hope that the tope 3/16 inch is
smooth where the seal bears on it.

Your thoughts?

thanks!

I would bring it in to your local bearing house and have them measure it and check to see if you can get a speedy sleeve for it.
If you can let us know. Others may need the info in the future.
 
and if they do have a speedi sleave for it. mix up some epoxy and slater it on before seating the sleeve to fill in all the porous area under it. of course remove all the rust first. chemical or wire wheel...


one of the FEW times I will ever suggest epoxy as a part of a fix on these old tractors..
 
The speedi-sleeve that is the correct ID for this application is only 5/16" long. You won't have to polish down very much of the rust to install that sleeve.
 
Yes.
The lower sealing surface (the one in the photo) measures 1.250" and the sleeve is number 99125. The upper sealing surface measures .875" and is sleeve number 99087.
 
I'll look up the sleeve. We have a good bearing house here in nashville.

How would you go about turning it down? I don't have a lathe.
