I AM TRYING TO PUT A CHAR-LYNN POWER STEERING ON A FARMALL MD. I'M HOPING SOMEONE MAY HAVE SOME IDEAS OR MAYBE KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND A STEERING PUMP BRACKET OR MAYBE A PICTURE OF ONE.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
 
Put this question over on the Farmall Forum. (also use upper and lower case type) A partial answer is to find room on the left side to mount the pump. Build brackets that can support the pump, but also allow belt tightening. A pulley added to the front crank pulley would be best. It could be brazed on. Jim
 
steiners has the torque genny mounting bracket and the bracket to hold the eaton ps pump to the engine block
 
Here is an older post from YT showing a pump mount for a 400 diesel. I don’t know compairativly how much room there is on the MD. As for the brackets from Steiners I don’t see any for a diesel only the gas style that goes on the governor. If Glenn sees one maybe he could post the part number. And as far as the ..all caps.. goes we are mostly nice guys here that don’t need yelled at much.
PS pump mount on F400D
 
I had a live hydraulic setup on our MD by just running a belt over top of the fan belt and the pump mounted on the right side of the tractor. Dad didn't like the wear on the top of the fan belt and took it off. It worked good for lifting the mower in hay. I put the tank on top of the fuel tank mad tear drop shaped so it fit right under the steering shaft. Elbow out the right side and the bracket on the right side light tree inside the right light. 3/4 hose from tank to pump. I used a piece of window screen slipped over the end of the pipe fitting the return hose went on for a filter with the hose slipped over the screen on the pipe. Then the hoses from the valve back to the rear. I think I slipped the hoses under the seat bracket then put the couplers on them. Kept the hoses out of the way and not falling down into things. They ran right down the front of the dash so to speak along the light switch and by the shift lever on the right side didn't bother with the light switch or the shift lever. Amp gauge was partially covered.
