Steering does not work when PTO is engaged the tractor was rebuilt after Hurricane Harvey in Texas (wo insurance coverage).The orbital valve was found to be taken out by a shady mechanic and not put back inside! The MF dealership priced a brand new valve for $1500 and all they/I really need is the ball size so that we can simply replace. Looking and calling manufacturer and elsewhere we cannot locate this info and do not have another to compare to... ANY help would be a blessing. THANKS

The oribital valve has many many parts to it. Without a manual and full parts list and access to a reliable source for any parts aside from the bearings could be a challenge.

With so many parts to deal with you have your hands full.

Best of luck ....
