Description
Wrestling with a worn-out steering box turns every field day into an arm workout you don’t need. When you’re doing heavy fieldwork like deep plowing or disking with these MF 100 and 200 series tractors, you need steering that responds without fighting you every turn. This replacement manual steering box casting brings back that solid, direct feel these Massey Ferguson workhorses were built for – no slop, no guessing, just precise control when you need it most.
What You’re Getting
- Durable cast iron construction that handles the constant stress of farm work
- Adjustable gear mesh lets you dial in the perfect feel – tight enough for precision, loose enough to prevent premature wear
- Direct replacement for original equipment – fits right where the old one came out

Built for Real Farm Work
These Massey Ferguson models are workhorses across diverse farming operations including row crop cultivation, hay production, and livestock farming. From the trusty 165 loader tractor to the bigger 290 doing heavy field work, whether you’re feeding cattle, running a bush hog, or pulling a planter, precise steering makes every job easier and safer. The MF 165 and 188 models excel in row-crop work handling cultivation and planting tasks, while mid-range models like the 265, 275, and 285 power through heavy fieldwork including plowing and disking.
Made to Last
Farm work is hard on steering components, and this casting is built to handle it all. The heavy-duty construction stands up to the constant jarring from rough fields, loader work, and the daily grind of real farming. Quality materials and proper heat treatment mean this box will keep working season after season without developing the play and looseness that makes steering a chore.
Good to Know
Installation requires removing the old box completely, which means disconnecting the steering arms and column – take photos of the steering arm position before removal to help with reassembly. After installation, check toe-in settings since a worn box often lets operators compensate with incorrect front end alignment. Set the adjustment with just a slight drag at center position for best results.
