steering bracket "HELP"

[sutrykny14879]

Long story short, borrowed my fathers John deere 855, 4x4, power steering, I broke a bracket on the power steering. it is made of cast iron. I've tried having it welded, but broke In the same spot. I need to replace it and not quite sure what I am looking for. What is it called? Where can I find it? HELP HELP HELP

Go to a John Deere dealer and ask them to sell you a new part.

:welcome:
Can you describe the bracket that broke? And where in the 'steering' is it located?

Is it the arm on the right or left wheel spindle? Or closer to the steering wheel end?

Can look up the part numbers in jdparts to help you search for the part.

For example, the left spindle steering arm is shown here, at the top. # 37

The methodical depth of Mace's answer is astounding.I hope I think that deeply when I grow up.:laughing:

Seriously though,eBay or deereparts should have what you are looking for.Once the part is identified.

Its on the right side on top where the wheel goes through the axle . the hydraulic for the steering hooks into it, then the other wheel is hooked to the lower side.

V it out on the broken edges and bronze it. Should be fine.
