    Pump drive for Cat 3304

    The price can be a huge deal. The pump Rexroth was wanting to sell us was $8500! And we will need 3 of them, I found that Versatile is using a Rexroth pump with the same output that I can get for $1600! Then the adaptor machining and spline adaptors sourced out of Denmark were about $1000. So...

    Pump drive for Cat 3304

    What flange and shaft is the pump that was on here? I've been fighting trying to find load sensing pumps that would bolt up to a CAT drive box from a 773B haul truck, the CAT pumps that were on it were gear pumps with 2 bolt C-flange & C-shaft splines, but I found out when trying to install a...

    SplineShop.com has some random hard to find hydraulic spline adaptors. We've ordered some stuff from them, it good stuff.

    Any Cincinnati Mill Knowledge Here??

    We ended up getting this mill along with a older press break and radial arm drill all from the same place. The break and radial arm are hooked up and working fine, the mill we haven't been able to get going yet, I think it might be just a loose wire somewhere, but we haven't had time to get it...

    Bore welding

    For the setup we have, yes. It only came with the lead and gun that fits the boring tool and rotates in the bore. The welder itself did not come with the Portable Boring Machine.

    Bore welding

    The one we got came with an entire new lead and the gun that spins in the machine. We have not used it but with the adaptor that I found, which we have not gotten because we haven't needed to, it looks like we just take our lead off of our machine and unplug the lead wires, then hook the boring...

    Bore welding

    We got a China Ebay special one. It was about 6K and it is still doing a good job. We had a local company do a bunch of boring for us and they charged 26K so I figured the gamble on a 6K machine was worth it. We've had it about 2 years and have bored quite a bit with it. The cutters and set...

    Are CAT Hydraulic Pumps Special to CAT?

    We have looked into the stackable pumps some, I have not gotten a straight answer if the will fit this mounting surface or not, and no one that sells them wants to go measure a shaft for me. I love the idea of all the same pumps, I would be pretty tight on enough room for stacking the pumps but...

    Are CAT Hydraulic Pumps Special to CAT?

    I have look and thought about doing this, the pump diverter I'm using mounts 3 pumps on it. One of the mounting spots could be machined down with plenty of strength left, another would be on the edge of strong enough and the third can't be done and still be 100% confident that the pump won't...

    Are CAT Hydraulic Pumps Special to CAT?

    Are CAT C-flange pumps different then every other C-flange pump? I have a CAT pump drive diverter from a 773B haul truck with a 3412. The diverter is run off of a driveline yoke out the back of the left head. The diverter had 3 gear pumps mounted on it, 2 with a 2 bolt C-flange mount and 1 with...
