Hydraulic Pump Upgrade (Deplorable Diesel)

[51allis]

Pity NH didn't do the same thing when LS switched to the LS Mtron engine. Same flows from what I see.

Same flows? little confused, when I looked at tractordata.com, you can find the NH Boomer 4060 has a main hydraulic pump that flows 12gpm using a tuned up (more HP same engine as LS XR4046) Shibarua N844 and power steering pump that supplies 5.5gpm. The LS XR4046 has a main hydraulic pump that flows almost (manual says 7.6 GPM) LISTED 8gpm and a 4gpm power steering pump. I then looked at both pumps and the bolt pattern PLUS the shaft were the same (10T splined shaft). The only differences is where the hard lines (input and output) for the pump are, on the 8gpm the input (suction) is just a threaded hole so the hard line won't work, will have to be removed and using some adaptors change it over to a hydraulic rubber hose supply line. Then for the output (pressure) side, I think the pump is LARGER and it puts the output farther back (I could be wrong on this) and it won't match up to the hard line and then this might also need to have some adapters and converted to a high pressure hydraulic rubber hose. This is all in theory, I don't have the pump yet and Im pretty sure the hard lines can be removed and adapters such as BSPP etc. used on the other ends.

you misunderstood ... when LS switched to to LS Mtron engine 31xx/41xx series the NH equivalents use the same pump specs supplied by LS.

Ok I got what you are saying now, was confused a little haha. Have a good one.

Alexpops,
Thanks for the reply!

Now if someone reprograms your ECM to eke out the extra HP, then the comment about robbing HP and overloading engine wouldn't apply. You'd still need to compare the loader specs though.

The increased flow will require a very minimal additional hp. The only time it would effect hp would be when using the full volume at full pressure. Normal operation would have very minimal effect on the engine output.
