I have a mid 80's 2wd M4050 with FEL the power steering does not work. All of the other hydraulics work fine. It looks like a two part pump can the power steering portion be bought separately or do I have to buy a complete pump? Can this be rebuilt or repaired? Any suggestions for a good source for the pump?

I have cracked the high pressure line at the steering cylinder and fluid comes out but not under high pressure.

Hey fl.trader, from the looks of the parts diagram on Messicks you might be able to repair it.

Click on Hydraulic System > Power Steering 1 & 2 for diagrams of the assembly. Better hope its not that booster assembly, that could run you over $1500 from the looks of it.
