I've asked a few questions on this subject before plus I've dug through the archives many times...
What I have is a '53 Super M that I want to add power steering too. I have a Char-Lynn Torque converter and a new seal kit for it so I've got the primary pieces, what I need is to figure out how I'm going to get power to the thing.
My SM does have a live pump that uses the belly pump as a reservoir. So if I went this route I would need a priority valve and some new hoses. The disadvantage here, at least for me, the way my system is hooked together I would really have to pull everything start over. Not a bad thing but maybe more of a project then I want right now.
The other option is to the right bracket and a PS pump. Those things seemed to be on eBay all the time, now not so much. I also seem to remember Allen in NE have spacer problems or something like that when he did his M so I'm not even sure what part and pieces I would need to make it work.
Soooo, I'm not really sure which way to go. I kind of like the idea of the PS pump since I don't have to get into the other system and in the end probably looks a bit cleaner BUT using the tractors live system is nice because it's on less thing to have to worry about.
