Wild hydraulic pump idea...

[firmwood]

Built our own loader. Heavy front loader, heavy axles, blah blah.

Had a flat heat Ford, converting to a ford I6, dad had it terrible hillbillied with power steering pumps. Ugh.

I was going to be wild, but not that ridiculous. I was going to buy a 2 stage 16gpm and bypass the 2nd stage adjustment, so it's alway stuck on the high volume, low pressure. Since I'll have the horse power, I just I'm not sure if the case will withstand around 1800-2200psi on that side/set of the gears.

I can get those pumps all day for $110.......


Opinions?

It won't at least maybe for a short time. You can get a simple gear pump in that range for less than $200 that will handle 3500psi. CJ

Case can't take it? Poor lubrication? Snap input shaft?
