Great work there! I wish I was handy with a lathe, oh the things I could fix then!!
Not exactly "cheap" but certainly cheaper than buying all original new parts for my Massey Ferguson. Over the past couple of years I broke a lot of steering components because someone had removed most of the power steering parts from my 202 and left others just hangin' there rusting. To make a long story short, new parts estimated at around $1600 to repair what was broken and replace what was missing. For somewhere around $600 I build my own hydrostatic power steering that runs off the loader hydraulic pump.
