I’m an 8N newbie that is working on an old early 8N. Sorry for this dumb question. Is there a practical use for the front mount hydraulic pump setup you put on for an 8N that never had a front loader? It looks like it just recirculates the fluid. Could I run a log splitter with it, like from a tee on the front? Thanks for a great video
@@yogibeer9319if I'm understanding right. Your Wanting to run a log splitter off the same front mount pump used for the 3 point live power. Ford 8N internal pump was only rated around 3gpm. A log splitter requires around 12gpm. My current setup won't run a log splitter. But you could get a pto driven hydraulic pump that could stay hooked to the log splitter with its own hydraulic tank.
@@Parkinsonssteelandlead How would you need to set up the hoses to be able to hook up a hydraulic accessory like a log splitter? Would it just be a matter of putting a T quick connect on both the supply and suction side?
Nice! You did a good job explaining it.
Good video
Wow. This breakdown was great to see. Thanks for the insight!
Thank you very much! Sure appreciate you sharing this. Even showed the parts...first class!
Is there a reason to have that set up, other than a loader?
Question: Does the PTO have to be on for live system feed line to operate?
No it doesn't.

I would like to have live hydraulics and be able to hook up other accessories to those hydraulics.
Do u have part number for pump
