| Ok, so my 1978 Montgomery Ward mudder has finally hit the breaking point. I've had a rough steering rack, and finally the tooth broke off. Now I can no longer turn right more than a few degrees. The problem is, it has a fairly unique steering system, and I've never seen them for sale. Should I try to completely redo the system? I have a few MTD racks and pinions laying around, and one Craftsman (I'd probably use the craftsman). You really have to know this tractor to see what you're getting into here! Thanks! | |

| Modding in a Craftsman steering box would probably be easiest. Direct steering is always an option as well but will take a bit more work. Head Forum Administrator ** Chat Moderator ** Facebook Page AdminATLTF Facebook Page ** Chatbox ** How To Upload Pictures

| Uhh. Yeah. I don't really have a direct path for direct steering. I want to use it as it (but someday I'm going to turn right and it's gonna go straight)! | |
