There was an aftermarket kit from Char-lynn that was popular back in the day. You spliced a torque generator into the long steering shaft, so it was pretty universal. Generally used a small automotive power steering pump. I had one on a 60, actually, and it worked great. I parted out the tractor, and still have the power steering set up. No, its not for sale- its destined for a Cockshutt 35.
You can still get Char-lynn torque generators through Eaton, among others (eaton dot com).
I understand they quit making the kits because guys were putting them on cars. Too much liability, because if the torque generator fails, you have no steering control at all. Not a big problem on a tractor, but catastrophic on a car going around a turn at 70 MPH.
