I have one fitted to my disco,should be easier on a defender if you are using the ox winch do not use the valve that comes with it also get the right type of valve is important as well
disco seriesII mods so far:-bullbar,hyd winch,
detriot locker,lsd front,C.D.L kit,chipped and bigger intercooler,2" lift,rock sliders, lsd in transfer case, modified auto trans.

The maxi-drive pto is made for pumps with an SAE 'A', 2 bolt mounting flange and 9 tooth splined shaft. I believe they now have a pto for larger SAE 'B' mounting.
The gear pumps that Mal sells are made by Cross.
am thinking of maybe an alternative... you guys reckon a electric hydraulic winch is a good choice? just throwing around the idea.![]()
Why not splice it into your power steer unit like it is designed for as it will run your winch and ster the veh at the same time with ease ..
Or mount up another power steer pump to run the winch as this would probably cheaperand easier than the pto driven jobbie ..
If i was guna drive a winch off the pto it would be a pto winch like a thomas like the army use
cheers

the winch are rated at 1500PSI ..does it mean a typical steering pump can do it. i just wanna run it on an alternate pump then the current one im using.
What should i look out for in the steering pump.. just the PSI or is the flow rate important as well..
my mate has a hydraulic winch fitted to his cruiser, i'm pretty sure he said when its connect using the existing steering pump hoses when you steer while winching the winch slows and in some cases stops until you stop the moving the steering wheel, this wouldn't be an issue as its not as if the steering gets a big workout while winching
Any type of power steer pump should do i know a holden one is good fr about 11000 psi so yep it will be adequate your steer pump on the engin will be capble of running both and you can geta shutoff for it so it bypasses the stering so it only runs the winch ...
Cheers

dont know why youd want to put the hyd pump on the pto unless you dont already have power steering.....
the powersteeing pump (typically) has a fiar margine of headroom for the job it actually does... splice into it for the winch and your laughing.
If you want to go overboard later,,, in addition to this splice in a smaller hyd pump on a 12v startermotor to use as an emergancy pump, fit it with some one way check valves and you can winch when you dont have the engine turning..
If you choose to go this way I would consider fitting a bigger hyd tank to the system to allow for cooling and to help prolong the life of the oil.
