Hey Cowboy: To answer your questions it sure looked good on paper: but I never completed it so even though I am sure it would have worked I don't have a working machine to prove it. On a bi-directional motor setup you can plumb in 4 check valves and an adjustable relief valve to make the motor pump back into it self and provide self-braking. This braking works very well and would hold back your load. This circuit is often used in mobile hydraulics and winch circuits. My problem was I was looking for a large affordable variable displacement pressure compensated pump so that I could use only one pump for all hydraulics and not use an automatic transmission on the back of the engine. My Bobcat skid loader uses a hydraulic motor on each side with a chain drive to couple the wheels together and it sure brakes effectively even with a load on the machine. Tom R
