This video shows the installation of a power steering conversion kit from Jackson Power Steering being installed in a 1981 Ford 1700 tractor. This tractor had a (less common) power assisted recirculating ball steering gear that had excessive wear. Most Ford 1700s had a manual recirculating ball steering gear. Since parts are no longer available for the steering gear and it did not provide much power assistance, converting to hydrostatic steering was the best option.
