I have a 1974 mf135 that has the reliability that lives up to the model's storied history. Sadly, due to my own ignorance of some of it's quirks I have a serious PS issue. It is American built, and those owners of the fm workhouse who stable the machine know the PS unit sits below the steering column under the battery. The issue I need help with is.........the gear ram has blown out the end of the gearhousing so that the cap and block shim cannot be properly tighten in place to guide the gear travel as it should. This situation will only make sense to those who have opened the top of the housing and seen how the PS works. Finding a new housing box is difficult and removing it to send out to a welding shop requires a major tear down. I'm reaching out to those who might have a suggestion for on site repair or someone who has had to deal with the same issue and can tell me how they dealt with it. Hopefully yours. Munzy
