I have an International Harvester 350 Utility TLB
I was doing some dirt work this weekend and started having some serious issues with the steering. I was having trouble getting the wheel to turn left . It was muddy and the tractor was sliding around quite a bit. When I got back on the tractor yesterday the right side was unresponsive to the steering wheel. As I worked with it some, I could turn the steering wheel hard to the left then while pressing on the steering linkage get the right tire to start to grab.

Does anyone know of some sort of a conversion using parts off a junk yard vehicle?
