Description
When your Massey Ferguson 290’s power steering starts getting stiff or you notice power steering fluid spots under the tractor, a worn O-ring on the power steering pump is often the culprit. This small but critical seal keeps hydraulic fluid where it belongs and air where it doesn’t—both essential for smooth, effortless steering. Don’t let a simple seal failure turn every turn into a wrestling match with the steering wheel.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-sized 3/16″ x 3 3/4″ O-ring designed specifically for power steering pump applications
- Oil-resistant rubber compound that handles hydraulic fluid and temperature extremes without hardening or cracking
- New type design that provides improved sealing over older-style rings
- Direct replacement—no modifications or special tools needed for installation
Built for Real Farm Work
Your 290 is a workhorse that handles everything from loader operations to heavy field work, and reliable power steering makes those long days much more comfortable. Whether you’re maneuvering around the farmyard with a loader bucket full of feed or making precision passes with a cultivator, smooth steering control keeps you productive and reduces fatigue.
Made to Last
After years of service, original O-rings turn hard as rocks and lose their ability to seal properly. This replacement seal is built with quality rubber compounds that stay flexible and maintain their sealing properties through countless pressure cycles and temperature swings.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward—just clean the O-ring groove thoroughly with a pick to remove any old seal fragments, then install the new ring with a light coating of clean hydraulic fluid. Never force an O-ring into place, and take your time to avoid nicking it during installation. Always maintain proper power steering fluid levels and check for leaks after the repair.
