My hydraulic pump crapped out onmy timberwolf and they want 540.00 for a new one (22galmin) that hurts thing is 6 years old and does do a azz load of wood
Dat do sux my brother! Best of luck gettin' ah new pump. You may just get lucky and find another, cheeper source for that pump.
If "they" is TW, shop around. You should be able to save a close to 50%, just match as close as you can the gpm in both stages and the mounting pattern. The plumbing side is just a matter of adaptors if necessary.
i was thinking about going from a 16 gpm on my splitter to a 22 but im afraid my small cylinders wouldnt be able to handle it
Try Lifco Hydraulics , Buffalo NY. They've always been the cheapest source of quality pumps for me over the years . They have a website you can enter the pump serial # and if they have it in stock you can view the price right online. I bought a 22 gpm for my splitter build awhile back and it was around $350 . Rebuild is also an option.
The pump went on my TW-P1 this past fall. Well, not completely, but it was leaking so bad as to be unusable. I replaced it with an OEM pump for $300 but could have saved $180 by going with an aftermarket pump. Unfortunately, the aftermarket ones were backordered and probably still are. My dealer wanted to use the aftermarket one but I wasn't willing to wait.
Try Surplus Center; they are the cheapest source on any hydraulic parts that I know of. It looks like $129 here... 2 Stage (Log Splitter) Pumps | Hydraulic Pumps | Hydraulics | www.surpluscenter.com
