Description

When your power steering starts feeling loose or you notice hydraulic fluid weeping around the cylinder, chances are good the chrome rod needs attention. This early-type 25mm chrome rod keeps your Massey Ferguson’s power steering system working smoothly, turning those long days of cultivation or loader work from an arm workout into manageable operation.

What You’re Getting

Chrome surface treatment resists scoring from dirt ingress – keeps seals intact longer
Precision-ground 25mm diameter fits early power steering systems perfectly
Quality steel construction handles the pressure and constant movement of steering operation
Direct replacement component that matches original specifications

Built for Real Farm Work

This chrome rod is specifically designed for early Massey Ferguson 100 series tractors including the 165, 175, and 178 models. These mid-range utility tractors are perfect for mixed farming operations – whether you’re running a bush hog, pulling a disc, or doing loader work around the farmyard. The power steering system makes all the difference when you’re putting in long hours.

Made to Last

Modern manufacturing techniques and materials often exceed original specifications, so you’re getting a part that’s built to handle years of farm use. The chrome plating is what sets this apart from cheaper alternatives – it’s not just for looks, it’s what keeps the seals from getting chewed up by dirt and debris.

Good to Know

This rod is for early systems with 25mm diameter only – double-check your existing rod diameter before ordering. Installation typically takes 2-3 hours with basic tools, though you’ll want to have the hydraulic system bled properly afterward. If you’re doing the work yourself, keep things clean – dirt in the hydraulic system causes expensive problems down the road.
