The link takes me to a specific piece of equipment.
If the original poster wants to continue, I hope he has a few specific needs identified. The idea to make it Unimog like sounds good, but could be very costly with a variable displacement pump and well engineered distribution/valves that...
Should you want to explore closed center and variable displacement, pressure or flow compensated pumps, I design and build sawmill systems that use them... integrated with Siemens PLC's (or manual buttons) controlling the valves. It's all 24 vdc, so will work with the truck electrics.
