Hi TJ,
First check around real good I have seen them sell from as little as $50.oo to $175.oo or more for a used pump.

Search the archives here, there have been many questions asked about adding live hydraulics to a Farmall M.

I just added live hydraulics to my 1950 M, all of the parts I used came off of a Farmall 400.

I changed the following parts to complete mine:

Timing gear cover
Timing gear back plate
Timing gear
And added the reservoir from a Super MTA (the one that mounts under the gas tank) to go along with the belly pump so I would have more hydraulic oil capacity to work with.

It cost me a total of $350.oo for all my parts including new hoses, but I may have been lucky by finding a 400 parts tractor. I did install everything myself, so there was no labor cost involved other than my own time.

Some claim that you do not need to chang the timing cover or back plate by filing the top 2 pump bolt holes out enough to mount the live pump and still use the orginal cam gear as long as you keep the hydraulic pressure reliefe valve set less than 1200 PSI.

I attached a link to this subject from the archives, if you wish to view comments about adding live hydraulics to your M.

Hope this may answer your question and help you out somewhat, if you plan to add live hydraulics to your M.

Good Luck
Night Stalker
