Some real old & some real new.Now Sterling Dump!
Had this here idea a couple of years ago to run the hydraulic pump off of a trany pto.
Pto works perfect,Then came time for the pump to hook to it.No dice with out spending a small fortune. Also had the chassis all built,When useing the pto,you need to put the trany neutral.So it even has a parking brake. She's a 6x6 Was going to be an Aeromax dump,now she's going to be a Sterling. Now the new. First screw drive I've driven via a pto. Can't wait to see how this pans out. Thanks for lookin! FGD |

Re: Some real old & some real new
Well..Thanks Guys!
The body work is all done,except need to notch back of cap a bit for pto drive shaft. Managed to git the screw drive working. Man,it was a tight fit. Here's the shake down run. I couldn't ask for better. Have a little machining to do for clearance,but I'm a happy guy! Thanks for lookin! FGD |

Re: Some real old & some real new
That is too cool! How can you put the trans in neutral?

Re: Some real old & some real new
Looks great Freddy but I am wandering how you are going to put the trans in neutral with out it wanting to go into one gear or the other.

Re: Some real old & some real new
Yea,kinda left them trany mods out of the pics. I will tell you that it does have a neutral & all 3 gears. Best of all,the pto has a lot of gear reduction due to where I tied into trany.
Well got the back of cab notched out. Also made the proper clearances in screwdrive. She's a lot better now. This baby has as much lift power as the trailers! I LOVE IT!! Thanks for lookin! FGD |

Re: Some real old & some real new
Very cool, Fred. Kind of similar to what the Wedico 3 speeds use. They have an output shaft on the transmission also, for PTO work, and the axles can be disconnected by the differential, so the transmission doesn't have a neutral.
I'm curious if you can drive the truck forward with the PTO raising the box, or if you have to choose one function or the other? Either way, a working PTO is very neat, even if you have to be stopped to run the PTO. Nice job.

Re: Some real old & some real new
Now Freddy you know I'm kind of fond of the mods to the cab...but tapping into the transmission to make a PTO that drives the dump body...that is just next level stuff! Very cool. Just awesome. Nice work!

Re: Some real old & some real new
Those mudflap brackets are neat, did you make them yourself?
Also the pto is ingenious, nice work.
