I have a SMTA that has had power steering added to it at some point. It uses the hydraulic pump to operate. My tractor doesn't have the auxiliary control valve or remote control rod on it anymore. Is there a way to add a splitter or valve that will run the power steering along with two-way hydraulics?? If so, will both work well enough to be worth the cost??

Craig;
I did this modification to my SMTA and it was worth every bit of the cost and time to install it. I set mine up with dual two-way hydraulics, one for the two point and one for the remote for the swather and of coarse the power steering. Took the pressure line from the pump to a priority valve where it splits, one side goes to the power steering and the return from that goes to the return line to the pump. The other side of the priotity valve goes to the center inlet on the valve and out the other end of the center of the valve to the pressure inlet on the hydraulic tank. The lever on the side of the tank is left in the forward position to get it to work correctly. After using it all summer with haying I wish my 400 worked as good. If you want to e-mail me I'll send some photos.

Good luck!

See this webpage:

See the section on adding live hydraulics, it shows a priority flow valve for power steering. Also on hydraulic tricks it shows the basics for plumbing in a 2-way valve.
