Wheel Horse 3D 3,795 #26 Posted July 18, 2021 Dont see why you couldnt reuse the lift cylinder and modify the control valve...i had actually been pondering this same thing. Extend the lines link the cylinder to some point in the front steering linkage, and modify the control valve to link to the steering wheel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How did it work? I thought someone on here was building a full hydraulic steering system using parts from a Deere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone done it. Yes there was a thread on here somewhere several years ago somebody did just that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Search epay for garden tractor steering valves. JD 318, Sunstar etc, many had them and it would be nice if you can find the whole circuit setup with everything to make the conversion easier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
