Default Which hydraulic components?
A future project I have planned will require hydraulics. Is the cylinder, lines, controls and power unit all I need, or am I missing something?

I was thinking of making something too. Not sure if it will need hydraulics though. What do you think?:biggrin2.gif:

I'm building a loader. I want to lift 500lbs, but want to keep the frame light. I know I need a long stroke cylinder for the raise, and a small one to dump the bucket. I'm looking for a power unit that will control both, I know I'll need a small reservoir tank and lines (obviously). What I'm wondering is do I need a pump and power unit? Should just be the power unit right?

Please define your version of "pump" and "power unit".

The pump is the power unit. Unless you mean the control valves.

One more thing you can't forget Stitch....Hydraulic Fluid! :biggrin2.gif:

For $55 for the PF Engineering plans, I would say you would be money ahead buying the plans and not wasting time and money figuring things out yourself by trial and error. I'm happy any time I can get somebody else to do the engineering. I just like the building part.

As much as I HATE to spend money on directions and such things... I really have to agree with thenrie, on this. Spend 55 bucks on plans, or spend it on wasted welding rod, steel, pipe, pipe fittings, hydraulic pump, cylinders, hoses, nuts, bolts... and wasted gas running back and forth to where ever you're buying stuff from... I think it's $55.00 well spent. Kinda stupid to try to re-invent the wheel when there could be one right in front of you to copy from.

Because I think it'll be fun, that's why. I'm not sure where pf or whatever got their info, but I already found the long cylinder (meant for loaders) new, the small cylinder to dump the bucket, a double control, lines, and a reservoir for around $500 all brand new. The steel to build the frame will cost $98 at the scrap/manufacturing place 25 miles from here.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
