I Shibaura 2640 its a 4x4 with a front end loader and no power steering the tractor is great in every aspect except the lack of power steering it could break your arm if you hit a hole or something ive had it snatch right out of my hand my question is does some one make a power steering assist kit for this tractor or does someone know of a universal kit that i can make work.

Anything is possible, but it would be a tall order to fabricate one from scratch. It presents both mechanical and hydraulic (or other power-source) challenges. Hence it would also be an unlikely search for a generic.

If Shibaura doesn't offer an add-on (FELs are less popular in Japan, so there's less concern with steering effort), maybe there is one for a larger Shibaura model with a similar front end that you could try to buy and adapt.

Meanwhile, pump up your fronts, and hold the wheel so it can spin without amputating something. ....
