  • Hi, To clear up the description, can you confirm this backhoe is 2 wheel drive? I believe all Ford 555 backhoes were 2wd until the 555a update came out in 1984. Thanks 06/01/2026 11:54:32 AM

    UPDATED CLARIFICATION: 1. This Ford 555 IS A 2-WHEEL DRIVE backhoe 06/01/2026 14:04:29 PM

  • Is power steering working? Which hydraulic pump was determined to be bad? Did the failure occur suddenly? 06/01/2026 17:49:01 PM

    The power steering does work, but there is a slight leak. The hydraulic pump in the front of the engine is bad, and yes, the failure was sudden. 06/02/2026 18:21:02 PM
