DsBota,
I know I'm digging up an old thread, but I ma having a hard time finding the connection point of the far end of this valve...

I am trying to add power steering to my tractor using the same valve. Would it be possible to take some pictures of where the end of the valve attaches to the pitman arm?
Specifically where part #13 attaches in this diagram of your valve?

Are you able to steer without hydraulics?

The valve and the cylinder connect at the pitman at the same location. One on top of each others swivel eye with a long bolt. This way you can still steer without hydraulics. Since my original posting this I've replaced the hoses and got a smaller cylinder. Still works great.

Perfect, I just couldn't find a link anywhere to see where that end connected.
Did the cylinder fail? Or did you improve your mod?
Thanks,
Rob

The cylinder didn't fail, it was to short of a stroke and the bore was a little to large. I got the cylinder and the swivel ends from princess auto. What model are you putting it on? Here are some picture and sorry about the quality.

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out what would I need and how much it will end up for me to get power steering. Can you please tell me what kind of control valve #20 and what cylinder #4 in this schematic drawing.

Thank you

Finally got my fittings and was able to put it together. Works amazing even at idle:). I will eventually make a better bracket up for the steering knuckle and get new hoses for the cylinder. Have about $300 into it so far.
