Angry Howard Steering System

We are having problems with our Howard Steering System. It has been great over the past several years. We had a leak in the main cylinder two years ago and we took it to a local RV service and they repaired the leak. They have gone out of business and we haven't been successful in locating any one who's familiar with the system. This time it is not leaking, the fluid is backing up into the Vent Resevoir.

We don't know of any one in Florida who can repair the system. Would greatly appreciate any help.


Thanks

Hydraulic systems are not overly complicated from a technical standpoint. Find a construction equipment or farm tractor repair shop and see if they might be willing to look at your problem.
