Latest New Products From California Louisville COMBINES Accessories Power Steering Kit

Farmland Tractor Supply Tangent Oregon says its new replacement power steering kit for older Deere tractors can save you a lot of money compared to a complete rebuild
    The kit is designed for Deere 2510 3020 4010 and 4020 models It includes a new chromoly steering column and shaft billet aluminum hydraulic manifolds self-lubricating bronze bushings and stainless steel hardware The kit makes use of the tractor’s original steel lines and fittings throttle column and stop pilot valve and steering wheel
     “All the components in our kit hook up to the original lines ” says Dustin Raschein “The key component is the aluminum hydraulic manifold which we designed ourselves Deere doesn’t make the steering housing on these tractors any more so if it cracks internally all you can do to is reseal it
    “A reseal kit from Deere costs about $400 plus another $200 to $300 for the labor required to take everything apart and clean it Our replacement kit sells for $950 plus S&H so for only another $100 or so you get a new updated system that will likely last the life of the tractor ” www FarmlandTractor com; ph 541 928-1646
