I appreciate the feedback. Your thoughts are similar as mine, yet I wondered if the flow/pressure regulator was acting up causing more input than return, thus the overflow up the column. It is not a trickle of fluid but a considerable flow. I have (from owner)the original owners and parts manual from 1956, quite yellowed and only cost $1 and $2 respectively at the time. The IHC illustrations call out several o-rings in the column shaft but I have concerns about the sandwich style thrust needle bearing assembly, the internal cylinder valve and it's small pieces and any trouble I might encounter dismantling and reassembling the upper column shaft. I assume (and hate to) that it would easier to remove the entire shaft from the lower housing at cam sector and bench repair. Too many unknowns to just dive in with high hopes and end up making the situation worse. These older tractors can be cantankerous and troublesome if not dealt with care and skill. And parts for these early PS systems are terribly scarce and extremely pricey. Seals and O-rings I can source easily from my own inventory, IHC or locally. And just as an FYI; the current on-line IHC catalog illustrations and PNs are still almost identical to the original publications. Don't see that much any more. Any help is appreciated. Thank you Jim L.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
