Almost done with wd power steering. And been working on 23 Ford.

Looks good! That location for the belt driven pump is basically the same as Allis did for the D17 Series III and IV.

Looks good. But do you need to have such a small pully on the pump, from the looks it will by running about twice engine speed.

Given that this engine runs a fraction of the speed of an automotive engine, it will probably be OK.

The reason for the pulley size is pump volume. At low idle I can turn the steering wheel from stop to stop as fast as you want to with the tractor at a stand still. It is the fourth one I have made. One with a loader works just as well with load of dirt in bucket.
