What do we think of a MF 50? Can I put power steering on?

docmirror · Mar 6, 2021

I have an option on a MF model 50. It has a front loader on it, but no PS. I will be using it for lite utility work, no farming. Any issues? Has the gas Conti engine, and standard 3pt.

There is likely some aftermarket solution for power steering, anyone know where or how much? I think MF offered it as option, but not sure on that.

I have a MF 40 which is basically the same tractor. Mine came with PS and also has a loader. The PS is original from the factory, very easy to steer even with the loader bucket filled.

I think my tractor would be very difficult to steer without PS, especially while using the loader. Anyway, someone may have already addressed this but, yes--PS was an option on these tractors. I have the Continental Z134 gas engine in mine.

I have a 1957 Massey-Harris 50 with factory power steering. I really like it, use it with mt 3pt finishing mower.
