Anyone know of a source for kits or parts to convert a larger garden tractor to power steering?

Thanks

Some people are using electric power steering units from cars. Check with your local auto salvage yard. Pretty slick way to do it if you can fab up some brackets.
 
(quoted from post at 08:58:32 04/08/17) How close in cost are you to buying a new machine with power steering?

Way far off! I have a Wheel Horse D200. Haven't used it for a few years. What is use to use it for has been taken over by a small utility tractor. But every year I have to take my full sized backhoe to my mother in law's to fix the ice heave from the lake. I was thinking that a very large garden tractor with a loader and backhoe would handle that chore plus be a fun play toy. But I'm at a point where if it doesn't have power/hydraulic steering it's worthless. I have a hydraulic pump that I can run with a coupler off the engine that would handle steering, a loader and backhoe. I can build the hoe and loader. SO yea, I'm real far off in cost.

John because I want to put a loader (home built) on it, it has to fit under the hood.
