Anything is far faster than the single speed that was on it. Besides the push plate stops wherever I want so it will be pretty zippy. At $80 bucks on eBay I won't complain for a new pump.I think the 16gpm is the bare minimum with a 4" cylinder. Anything smaller will make for a SLOW splitter!
those old 'low riders' always look like it would be a lot more bending over to use, having never used anything but the 22t huskee I got, is it more stress on the old back? if so since you have it apart, might be a good time to weld up some drop brackets to lower the axle and raise the height if you get what i mean, I could be totally off thoughTodays progress !
No need its a good height and would actually be harder to use if it where taller. That said I am going to install a winch powered lift table later this fall when I have more time to do it as well as a catch tray on the end. All in good time I suppose! It's actually built from a Mazda rear end but I have not been able to determine what model. Tomorrow I am replacing the bearings assuming I can remove the drums lol.those old 'low riders' always look like it would be a lot more bending over to use, having never used anything but the 22t huskee I got, is it more stress on the old back? if so since you have it apart, might be a good time to weld up some drop brackets to lower the axle and raise the height if you get what i mean, I could be totally off though

I have been working on the lift table its looking pretty good ill try to show it off tonight for you guys.That is what this place is all about, Pete. I just want to see the plan come together and make big pieces into little pieces.![]()
I prefer to be bland in the event of a theftI was hoping for pink zebra-stripe like David Lee Roth's tights, but green is good too
Nate at the speed it goes now any faster and the bar would catch fire lol. I want to see that sooo in a few years maybe ill spring for the 16gpm. Just saying who needs fingers.......I think the 16gpm is the bare minimum with a 4" cylinder. Anything smaller will make for a SLOW splitter!
