I see from drawings that it looks like you're using a servo for steering?

The steering axle always seems way overloaded on these types of scale model trks that servos struggle to steer in soft ground. Would there be room for a third valve in your design for hyd steering?

Last 2 week, i'd thinking the same thing, and my fren suggested to use 2 servos instead of 1 for the steering..certainly hyd steering will be the choice here, I think I can make some space for another valve and cylinder to steer this monster.

Thx Joe, another superb input, appreciate that!
