neighbor's 5050 power steering leak

He asked me to look at it. I assume that it must be the actuator. Seal kits are $151. Will it require any special tools to dis assemble it? Is it a job for a repair shop?

Never know until you check it out,bought a David Brown 990 leaking around the steering motor everyone thought the motor was leaking a half a turn on one of the fittings and
the leak stopped.Look for the simple/cheap stuff first.
 

Could be the pump, lines, or cylinder. I've done all on my 5050 for about $500 in parts. All are entry level tractor repairs. Get the book to get it right, you never know what PO did.

When done right it is one finger steering with an allis 400 loader.
 
I looked at it today. The actuator is leaking. I am going to call the local dealer for some more info. They are 30 miles away, but I will probably fix it myself.
I will need to make a spanner wrench to remove the end cap. I assume that it would be easier to remove or at least loosen while it is still on the tractor.

Good luck with AGCO, a few years ago they wanted over $1,000 just for the cylinder rebuild kit.

I get all my 5050 parts from Rick's Ag Parts.

I didn't need a spanner wrench.
