450B steering

[Jimmy450b]

I have a 450B dozer that I have just replaced both steering clutch assemblies, the power steering is just erractic, making it very hard to get a true adjustment of the steering. My question is if I replace the power steering cylinders with 450 rods, AT18425, shouldn't this work better? Would it hurt anything to just hook the lines together from the pump? Thanks.

Fixed it, thanks anyway.

What did you end up doing? My 450B steers like shit and the power steering reservor wont hold oil for very long? I didn't even know it had power steering till a year ago.
