Hi everybody
I'm looking for advice and here.
I own an auto 02 Discovery TD5, I use it purely for work towing a heavy trailer every day.
I also have a lovely little skip trailer that uses a 12v hydraulic pump, the pump sometimes struggles and kills batteries often, so I've been thinking it might be possible to fit a small hydraulic oil tank in the boot of the disco and a pto to the transfer box to run a pump.
I'm hoping this would allow me to use a more powerful pump on quick hitch hoses and reduce the trailer weight considerably.
Can any of you landy experts tell me if this would work and how to go about it? Any advice would be really appreciated.
John
