PTO port for hydraulics??

[PPillard]

Gang,



I've been lurking for a little while now, reaping the benefits of the TDR forums. Fantastic resource, well worth the subscription fee.



I recently purchased a '98 Cummins 1-ton and I just ended up having to swap out the clutch. While I was under there I discovered my three PTO ports (two on the transmission and one on the t-case). I couldn't help but get excited.



My first thought was to just install a hydraulic pump with a couple of hose connections near the bumper for stuff like a log-splitter, cement-mixer, etc.



So, of course I jumped on to TDR to search out a PTO unit with a pump, thinking someone had to sell one out there. Well, so far, I've found a lot of info on winches, air compressors, generators and the like, but no plain hydro pumps.



Anyone got a line on these with general pricing?

www.mutualwheel.com They have hydraulics, don't see them on their site. Have seen it in their store.



If you want to get a used one, just go to a salvage yard that handles dump trucks, whether it be a truck like a C-60 Chevy or bigger. Some of the pumps have hyd. control valves built in, just need to run some sort of linkage to run it.

PTO air pump... . hrmmm... .



Sounds like a perfect compliment to an airbag suspension setup...
