    Full hydro help needed...smart math people!

    The simplicity of the air assist would be nice, but the strength and offroad ability of the hydro would be better. I have the oppurtunity at the MOMENT to get a PSC kit for around 830ish, but I don't have 830ish dollars right now, well not for that. If this is still available in like a month...

    I appreciate the input. I know that for 1500-2000 $ I could buy a PSC kit. Matter of a fact right now I can get the PSC get for around 830$. Half off almost. Thing is I don't want to spend more than a thousand dollars. I could, but don't want to. I think that is achievable being I have some...

    Ok thanks. Like I said we run a stock 12 valve cummins pump to run our hydro winch and hydro assist and it does ok, but I don't know if it would be up to the task of running a much larger ram on a much larger truck. How does the 5 ton PS pump attach to the LDT motor? D

    Rizzo the stock pump from what? I know you can use a single ended ram for simplicity and cheapness, but I don't like the fact that the ram goes quicker to one side than the other and the pressure it exerts on the extension part of the stroke is greater. I don't personally like that. Our hydro...

    Yea that pump is like 170$. Plus making a bracket. And finding a pulley, plus figuring out how many revolutions compared to engine rpms to prevent over revving the pump. Versus a p-pump that will rev alot higher. I was just thinking about the bracket of a p-pump. You have to take the pulley on...

    On the other hand a constant volume pump like this might be easier to mount. If I could find a pulley to fit it. That might be a little harder... Hmm...damn the brainstorming.

    Yea, I knew it was alot better. I guess it wouldn't be much harder to mount a p style pump than it would be to mount a Chevrolet alternator. I could just mount it above the generator. I will have to look at pulley options. But I still think I could build the whole system for under a grand. The...

    Which pump are you talking about from PSC? I klnow they have the "P" pump like the saginaw system on Chevys, Dodges, and Fords. But in my experience rockcrawling the factory Chevrolet pump sucks. We have burned up so many of those pumps that O'Riellys will no longer warranty them for us. We even...

    Ok, I know PSC sells a fully hydro steering kit for a rockwell. Well that is 1500$ and I am a tight wad and like to build my own stuff. So I have figured out what double ended ram to use and I have figured at what steering valve to use. I am trying to figure out with pump I will need. Like how...
