Ford 4000?
Any suggestions on what type of Power Steering kit will work on my Ford 4000 with front shaft driven 730 Loader? It appears that most kits state "NOT" for use with Front Loaders. I'm assuming this is due to the loader frame clearance. Loader works great, but is a little tough to steer especially with a load. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks so much guys for the great information. I really appreciate everyones time in helping me. I'm still not certain of the exact model of this tractor, I've been told around the 4000 series. I want to have a better fell before ordering a PS kit from Roland, he seems like a really straight up nice guy. I have sent him some pics today to see if he could shed more light before I order. I will post a few pics, if anyone else knows the model, that would be great as well.
Again, thanks for all of the help!

Update from Roland Jackson:
Roland contacted me this evening and explained that his product line won't fit my tractor. He explained the drag rod on the left side with only a tie rod going to the right side was the problem. That's bad news because he seems like a great guy to do business with.
Am I stuck???

Check eBay, they have a kit listed, but check fittment, other options are scrounge parts from another working Ps machine.
