I have just bought a new to me a Long tractor in great shape, however it steers hard. If you steer it slow it is trying to work like it should. I have checked the oil level and it is fine, should I check the hydraulic filter and see if it needs cleaned? What else would be the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ryster, I just saw that you live in Spokane. I live just outside Spokane over in Sandpoint by Newport! Welome neighbor! Not entirely sure, but I would check the filter as you suggested and maybe also verify that the pump isn't wore out and in need of a rebuild. Wish I could better help, but perhaps someone a bit more knowledgable can shed a more pinpointed light on your problem. Good luck! Chris

Ryster, does one pump run everything such as the loader, or do you have seperate pumps for steering and loader?

Thank you...it does look like the pump runs the loader as well.
