    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    If your engine or transmission takes a dump, you could still winch yourself out with a 24vdc winch...until your batteries go dead.

    D Does it come with another axle to support it? hahahahaha

    Garwood 20k winch hydraulic motor specs

    S See post #10 and look at the site. it "looks" exactly the same with the offset ports. it is exactly the same part # as Black Ops posted in post # 3. So If the splines/or keyway is the same as the one in your pic (cant see them) then you should be good to go. Personally, I would try to find a...

    Garwood 20k winch hydraulic motor specs

    the motor, according to specs is rated at 3000psi, so I would guess the lower pressure set up is to avoid too much torque that would break something in the winch or the cable.

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    Most motors have a industry standard flange sizes. you won't have any problem finding one for under 300$.

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    some hydraulic systems only have 1800-2000 psi Pumps, so some motors are designed to have their peak torque (psi) at that pressure. It doesn't protect the winch. if you put a 2000 psi motor with 1000fbs torque, the winch isn't protected. I wouldn't begin to worry too much about heat build up...

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    I built my own dump mechanism. If I were you, I'd get one off of CL. I would get at least a 10-12K pound capacity...minimum. Mine is made from telescoping rams that I had and really needs 3000 psi to dump a few tons. Dont undersize it.

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    since you haven't bought the winch motor yet, get one that operates at 3000 psi. they are more available than 2000 psi anyways. the cost is the same, and often lower. BTW, as you know, the higher psi gives the motor more torque, if its rated for 3000.

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    so before you can size the pump, you need to know the torque required, which is determined on the winch reduction gear ratio and Physics (drum size and load) and the speed which you would like the drum to travel. the speed can be controlled by a flow control valve. the pressure (2000-3000psi)...

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    theres something real wrong here...( it could be me) but If you have a motor with a 17.9ci/rev displacement, at 3.5 gpm, your speed would only be 45 rpms. Also you had better find out Exactly how many rpm's you require for your drum speed, and what the reduction ratio is, so you can figure out...

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    I know nothing about military PTO and Hydraulic winches. I do know that you must have a "braking" system somewhere on it because most hydraulic motors will not hold a load. you can lock out both lines and the drain on a motor and if you're hoisting something, it will drop back down. So you had...

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    why would you need a variable displacement pump to run both your hoist and winch? Is flow a issue?

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    I bought a A2C for 10K, and put a 1100$ Sherpa winch on it, but I'd rather have a A3....It wasn't in my price range and way too far to recover.

    Converting pto driven equipment to hydraulic and the decent into madness!!

    I removed the air conditioning pump and put the hydraulic pump in its place on my 460 Ford. Hydraulic motors need a whole lot more gpm than cylinders.....unless you're not in a hurry. hahaha

    Adding oil to fuel of m35a2

    I think the "multi fuel" is designed so you can run different fuels under a emergency or lack of availability, but diesel is the preferred fuel. I just run diesel like most owners because of the convenience of pump fuel, and its the most available. Some run Bio diesel too, which wasn't around...

    Modern inner hub seal??

    Staylube blue marine grease is designed for wet/submerged and salt applications. research using it. 12$ a cartridge.

    I added hydraulics on my ford truck to operate a 4 way snow plow and a dump bed using this type of pump. I think my gpm is a little higher and unnecessary...

    Adding oil to fuel of m35a2

    Its not a mix, its 15-40wt diesel motor oil. I think even walmart sells it. Just use that brand when you change your oil.
