L-175 Power Steering

[smokeys]

Has anyone been able to add power steering to a L-175. I have a lot of weight on tractor, # 400 gannon box, # 280 suitcase weights, # 360 rear wheel weights, # 200+ operator, but it has traction. Would appreciate any leads, parts list, and or pictures

I did a little writeup on adding PS to my B8200 a little bit ago. Although it isn't the 175, I think it will give you a good idea what is involved and where to start. PS is sure a nice thing to have, but it does come at a cost.

Dusty,
Sorry to dig up an old thread.
Do you have any closeups of the valve and how it connects to the drag arm, pitman and cynlinder?

Thanks,
Rob
