It has a partial sticker on it with a yellow picture of a hydraulic cylinder with a horse head and tail on it. Cannot read the name. Any idea what make it is? I want to put it on my 51 VAC Case as my shoulders are making it harder to steer. I do have room to put it in the steering shaft and will drive the pump off a double pulley on the alternator. Thanks for any info. Only paid $40 for it and the pump. Richard in NW SC [Reply]   [No Email]

Can steer it with one finger. They cost about $3500 just for the motor add pump and hoses and you can by another tractor. Walt [Reply]  [No Email]

And you could use any junk yard automobile power steering pump, for less than 50 bucks. They do work great- I also have a Cockshutt 35 that I plan to put one on. [Reply]  [No Email]

Just came in from the shop and in the daylight, I could see "Char" on the tag. I feel good about it now. Any problems I should look for? I will try it on low pressure before I go to the trouble of cutting the shaft on the tractor. How do I know which end goes toward the steering wheel? Richard [Reply]  [No Email]
