Hey there,
JD 2510 Syncro here.
I have a DIY log skidding 3-pt attachment minus a winch. I bought an 8 ton hydraulic winch for the top of it.
When I went to the farm implement store to get some hoses made up the owner -- a JD man himself -- cautioned me that older JD tractors will run hydraulic [i:87d3aa162d]pistons[/i:87d3aa162d] fine but might not run a hydraulic [i:87d3aa162d]motor[/i:87d3aa162d]. He said a bale wrapper he tried to run on one of his older JDs just wouldn't work.
Anyone have any knowledge or experience with this, before I have hoses made and install the hydraulic directional control valve (which I'd then be unable to return)?
Should I stick to an electric winch off the battery?
Thanks!
