    Oliver 550 Cessna Power Steering Pump leaking

    Hi I have an Oliver 550 gas with a Cessna (eaton?) power steering pump. The pump itself has a low leak and I think it probably just needs a seal kit. I got a quote for a full rebuild of the pump but they want $450 + they put in a tapered shaft so I'll probably need a new pulley which they...

    Oliver 770 Power Steering problems

    Well guys thanks to John S. and others here I was able to get the pump tested properly and it was shot. I sent it in to Maibach tractor for a rebuild (actually they sent me a different rebuilt pump but same difference basically. Anyway new pump is pushing 900psi right where it should be at...

    7800 combine

    I've see that one too, its been there for a couple of years, looks clean from the road at 65 mph but I have no idea what kind of condition it's actually in. I've actually thought a couple of times that it looked like a great one for someone collecting and restoring oliver equipment to get a...

    Oliver 550 Reese Hitch?

    Good point, I may need to work on a modification for that. Right now we aren't putting any heavy tongue loads on the ball, just empty trailers and such so it won't be a concern in the near term. I'm actually looking for a shorter extension too. They just didn't have anything shorter in stock...

    Oliver 550 Reese Hitch?

    Well finally getting around to posting some pics. I have to say I am loving the hitch so far. easy to change for hooking up different implements based on different ball sizes or a regular drawbar and if I am running something on the 3pt I just pull one pin and the hitch is completely out of...

    what grill for 550?

    My 1969 Oliver 550 has the checkerboard grill: It's an industrial and has the one piece non-adjustable front axle and the shuttle shift as well.

    Oliver 550 Reese Hitch?

    Well it took a bit longer to get it fabricated because we figured out the bolts wouldn't have room to turn next to the hitch tube once welded onto the plate. So we had to small tubes for each bolt to go in that were as tall as the hitch tube and I will use longer bolts to bolt the hitch on...

    Oliver 770 Power Steering problems

    John, I haven't had a chance to get the valves swapped out between my 550 PS pump and my 770 to see if the relief valve is the problem or if its the pump. Hoping to get to that this weekend if I have time. My problem is I need the 550 running right now and I need the 770 too...Too many things...

    Oliver 770 Power Steering problems

    Oliver 770 Power Steering problems

    Ok got the valve setup done with a pressure (3000 psi max) gauge. Started the tractor and closed the valve...the needle didn't even move, it pushes the ps fluid through when the valve is open but very slowly. So what next? Does that mean the pump is shot? If so where do I look to get a...
