Those hyd pumps sure do need a filtering system. I don't understand how they can be converted to live hyds without a two stage clutch and pressure plate system. Something has got to turn the pump while the clutch is depressed for the lift to work. alvinnmsLIVE THANG, LIVE HYDRAULICS FOR THE FORD N AND FERGUSON TRACTORS. I now have a live hydraulics kit ready to install in about an hour or two. I am going to call it "LIVE THANG" in keeping with all the other stuff I have to offer on the Internet for owners of the 9N/2N/8N Ford tractors and Ferguson tractors with the orignal Ferguson system lift. I am going to be asking $375.00 for the basic unit. If you want a filter in the suction side of the system which I reccommend but is not necessary add $60.00 to the basic price. Having a filter on the suction line will give the lift system a filter which we all know the Ferguson/Ford hydraulic system has been long lacking and needing. The addition of a filter and the plumbing for it would bring the price of the basic unit to $435.00 To add an additional two spool remote control valve less the mounting bracket and without any additional piping/plumbing will add an additional $200.00 to the basic unit price bringing the total to $635.00. A single spool valve is also available at about $125.00 additional if the two spool is not needed. Basic unit will give you live hydraulics for the 3 point hitch. The lift will operate when the clutch is depressed and the PTO is not turning. Or you can use it along with the PTO pump with the clutch engaged and the 3 point hitch will come up twice as fast as it now does. If more sofisticated models are requested I will give a price upon descripion of the valves and taps etc you want to operate such as remote cylinders etc. Please state what year tractor the device will be used on and if it has the original generator or has been converted to an alternator and what size width belt it uses. Wide or narrow. The older model engine block castings are different than the later model engine block castings. On the older blocks like in the 9N/2N and the 8Ns built before 1951 the oil filter mounting boss and the oil filler/breather openings are different than the 8N blocks. The earlier models have these two part closer to the front of the block by about 3 inches. this makes it necessary to have a different mounting bracket for each one. Same goes for the Ferguson tractors. On the Ferguson tractors other than the TO 20 I will need to know what model so I can make a pattern for the particular model. Have to know what belt size etc the engine carries. Just send me a money order or a personal check to - Zane Sherman,
2824 Renfroe Road,
Talladega Alabama, 35160 and I will be glad to get one on the way to you.
