Does anyone have a source for hyd. feed motors for this chipper? Lower feed roller quit yesterday morning on the job. I am getting 2250psi to the bad motor. Painfully slow progress with Altec.

Any tips would be much appreciated.

Most any hydraulic shop can match up a hyd. motor if you put it into their hands. Not always cosmetically identical, but once displacement, RPM, mounting system, and shaft sizes are matched up, you are in business.
 
Thanks anyway but I ended up finding the problem. Did not realize it had keyed shafts. Just needed new woodruff keys and the set screws retightened. FWIW I found the motors through Altec in Shelby, NC. They are around 600 each +/-
