Your stock steering has a feed back cylinder in it. it has to all hooked up as stock or it will not work. option is to install closed centre steering pump in column and connect to cylinders on front axle. Have any questions ask more on here be glad to answer. Call JD dealer and they can also help you out also.

Most J.D. dealers anymore are parts changers and really have no clue how things work. Sad!
If you find a good one, tip the wrench well.

I used a stock steering cylinder off a 6600 jd combined on my 6030. hooked the stock lines up and it works just fine.

That will work on older tractors with big steering valve under dash, but not with newer styles with feedback cyl in steering motor for valve block under hood. leave you number i will call you back, for more info thanks.
