I have 2 valves that are similar to this. Surplus Center - 5 GPM 2 SPOOL CESSNA 31932AE 164754C91 VALVE Where can I find handle kits for valves like this?

I am adding a separate hydraulic cylinder to lift the sleeve hitch on my Case GT. I'd like to use what I have on hand as much as possible to keep the costs down. I am going to mount it so that when the cylinder extends it is going straight up and down to lift the hitch. I have a cylinder that...

I have been working on building a custom tractor for the last couple of years. I am at the point now where I need to start thinking about plumbing my hydraulic lines. Most of the lines I need are going to have to be custom made. I was wondering what I would need to make my own hard steel...

Went and looked at a 220 case today. It has the optional hydro lift, L44 deck, good shape all around, tires were even still full of air and looked decent. Steering was tight. Didn't look to have any major leaks anywhere. However it has not been ran for several years and has been parked in a...

What is the biggest deck that will interchange on my jd 170? It currently has a 38", that has nothing wrong with it, but I have to keep up with 6 acres of grass everyweek and don't have the money for a bigger mower so thought I would check to see if there was a bigger one I could swap under...

On the home made tractor I am building I am going to be using the hydraulics to run some "pto" attachments. I have a clutch pump that is rated at about 20 gpm, which is sufficient to run the attachments and should have enough left over to run the steering and a few hydraulic cylinder valves...

I have a couple of big hydraulic clutch pumps that I have not been able to find specs on. Is there a way to somehow measure the pumps in a way to determine the cubic inches? That way at least if I know the cubic inches I can at least find a similar pump and guestimate that it should be...

For my custom tractor project I am going to need an oil cooler as I don't have room for a tank that would have the capacity to adequatley cool the oil. Given the fact that this will be installed so the fluid goes through before it returns, is the radiators ability to allow sufficient flow...

I am trying to find specs on this pump and have been searching for several weeks trying to find this information. I have contacted the manufacturer to no avail. It is a borg warner hydraulic clutch pump. The numbers on the pump are s20517dh81r and another set of 01208. I know its big, heck...

I have a 72" toro mower deck that I want to drive hydraulically. I have been told by my brother, who is a mechanic for toro, that this specific deck was used on models of their groundsmaster mowers that had anywhere from a 22hp engine on them up to 40 hp. If I recall(and i am in the process of...

I am in the process of bulding a 4wd hydrostatic drive articulating tractor. I am wanting to drive implements such as a mower deck, sickle bar mower, and a tiller via hydraulic drive. The hydrostatic drive is done via a driveshaft to two cub cadet hydrostatic transmissions. My hydraulic...

trying to find some specs on a hydraulic pump I got. The letters in the casting are hard to read so not sure if these are right. It is a Vickers pump, looks like a 105-c-12 ? It is a square housing if that matters. Thanks!
