Hello Rob We have just bought the power steering bits for our Leyland 384 and have watched your videos which will be very useful when we start the conversion. We do have one problem, which I hope you’ll be able to help with, namely the connections between the pump and the orbitran. What connects to what? Once we know the feed and return the connections to the ram should be easy enough, although we might turn left instead of right! It’s a Danfoss B80 orbitran and a Pleasey Dynamics C14 pump, I think these are pretty well stand for Leyland. Once again hope you can help. Regards Grahame
As you site in the tractor, the feed pipes from the pump, are on the right hand side (offside) top pipe on the orbitran is your feed from the front bottom of the pump, the bottom pipe on the orbitran is the return back to the top of the pump. Left side on the orbitran (nearside) go to the ram on the steering. Hope this helps 👍😀
@@thisoldtrialsrider7110 Thanks Rob that's just what we needed to know. We can now get the routeing for the hoses worked out get them ordered. Once again thanks. Grahame
Hello Rob At last we have got the power steering fitted and working. We piped it up as per your advice and it turned the wheels but was still hard work, not really any easier than the manual steering! We reversed the pressure and return pipes i.e pump out to the bottom orbitrol port and the return from the top port and now we have “one finger” steering. Our orbitrol is a Danfoss B80on.

Nice fix mate, the part you have to make looks a bit tricky, good luck bud.
