Gear reduction

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where or how to find the gear reduction steering parts from a 520h? One of the guys on this forum offered one up to me a while back and I can't remember who that was.  After driving around with an ARK 550 on a C kinda makes me think more about a steering mod. Or might there be any other mod to help the hard steering out?

Poor mans power steering:

A needle roller between the axle and the spindle.

 

And skinny front tires might be a big help.

 

Gear reduction steering pieces bring big dollars.

I used that thrust bearing set up on my C with a ark 550 on it. Notice a very very slight difference. Check them out last year and found all the little bearings were crushed. All that was left was the grease had turned to grey. Just too much wieght for those little bearings. At least that was in my case.

I found that lifting the front of the tractor off the ground with the bucket was the best way to steer with my loader.
