Subject: Live Hydrolics for a C
Date Posted: 10 Feb 2012 at 6:31pm
I am planning to put a loader on my allis c. I am wanting to figure out how to get live hydrolics on my tractor to run the loader. I don't want to cut my tractor's grill up or any other sheet metal. So i am asking for ideas/advice. Pictures would me great if you have them.
Thanks Aj

How about a PTO hydrolic pump.

The C already has hydraulics that work with the PTO but they aren't live.

You can do Live hydraulics off of the PTO...AJ I might have just the thing for you...

If you had a CA pedestal, you could mount a pump up front, drive it from the front of the crankshaft and not have to cut any sheet metal. I don't know if there is a way to anchor the pump on a C pedestal.

No you can't. The PTO stops when you clutch the C so it's not live.

Yes that is the issue. I don't want to run it off the pto, I want to leave that open. I do like how that CA has the set up for the live hydrolics. Does anyone know what is required to do that?

Buy the rear end from a CA and bolt your engine and torque tube to it. Or maybe just buy the final drives from a CA and attach them so you have the hand clutch. Then you won't have the 4 speeds and the better hydraulic pump.

I think the idea of 'live hydraulics' is so you can push the foot clutch and change gears while still having operating hydraulics.
So a CA  axle clutch wouldn't give you 'live hydraulics'.

Well that's how the CA got it, buy using the hand clutch, the PTO is live, just not independent. It wouldn't be very handy for loader use. Might be a little better if you moved the hand clutch to the left side.

Does thst mean D-14 and D-15 have 'live hydraulics' then because they have the Power Director / Hand Clutch.
 
Don't think so.
 
Hand clutch disengages power to the wheels .

It is a lot of work but I saw pictures of a setup that had a belly mount hydraulic pump run with a roller chain where the drive gear was mounted to the engine side of the flywheel.  Openings have to be cut on both sides of the bell housing to run the chain thru along with a pump mounting plate attached to the under side of the bell housing. Torque tube in this case. It was plumbed to the PTO housing using the same oil as the original hydraulic pump that could still be used.

Front pump is mounted to the front axle bracket for the WF pivot....may be a problem with a nf tractor.  This setup is sweet, 3pt on the rear with 2 way cylinders.

Eldon's setup simular to my B, minus mine is tucked in the front grill.  Which cutting up the grill maybe a down side, but if it's done clean, I think is the easiest way to get LIVE hydraulics.  Just mount to the radiator support and run a shaft through the hand crank hole and your done.

Find a behlen (I think that is the spelling) pump that fits between the mag/dist and the block, have one on my wc forklift and a 45 with loader and saw another one time that was used to power the orig power steering setup on a 45, dont have a pic but they are sweet and small and no cutting of any kind, then all you need then is a valve and a tank

YES, that is live hydraulics if you can stop the forward motion of the tractor and keep the pump running. The WD,45,CA and all D series have live hydraulics as long as the hand clutch or power director work.

[ http://www.antiquefarming.com/hydraulics.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.antiquefarming.com/hydraulics.html ] "The term "live" hydraulics, the
word "live" meant that each of the hydraulic
systems operated independently of the drive train and could be employed even
while the tractor was not moving. In the case of power
take-off, this meant that implements could be powered independently of the drive
train. The importance of the live feature was
experienced firsthand while brush cutting. The inertia created by rotary
implement made traveling ten foot distance with the clutch
disengaged and the brakes on a common occurrence on small tractors like the Ford
9N."

I guess it comes down to ones 'interpretation' of what 'live hydraulics' truly is.
 
My opinion is a tractor has 'live hydraulics' only if the pump is still operating  with the foot clutch depressed.
 
My D-12 Series III has both 'live hydraulics' and 'live PTO'.
 
Both the hydraulics and the PTO still operate even with the foot clutch depressed.
 
What do you other knowledgable Allis guys think ?

The WD was sold as having "live" pto....being able to stop motion without stopping the pto, in this case by using the auxillary hand clutch. The D10/12 Series III had an "independent" and "live" pto....."live" because you could stop motion without stopping the pto and "Independent" because it wasn't dependent on the main clutch being engaged for it to operate.

What I liked about the type such as the WD and others used is that say you were running a PTO combine and something happened that you needed to stop every thing, combine and ground travel, one motion, the foot clutch, did the job.

That's exactly why I like my 175D's for tilling and brushhogging...some people think that the hand clutch/power director isn't user friendly like the new "independent" tractors, but I disagree!

AJ, i dont know what kind of hydrualic pump it had. Took the photo at a show. I had layed one out once and problem is the belt tighen and alignment. This one had a double pulley on the alternator. Fan belt drives alternator, and alternator drives pump with a seperate belt.. solved a lot of problems i thought.

There is one for sale at that link. You take the magneto off, put the pump on and bolt the magneto to the pump. Plumb it up using an add on tank or the differential housing as a reservoir and add the valve you want with a return line.

Does anyone know how common these pumps are? The one on ebay is an International I think, will that fit on an allis?.......I'm guessing these are in high demand and very few of them made beings this one has almost 30 bids and is near $300 and still has time. I can't say i have ever seen one of these on an allis b or c but I am young and haven't seen everything. Anyone know if allis made these specificly and what models were they found on? Which models are compatible with the b/c?

Thanks Aj.

they were not that common. you will need one of of a Farmall. it will bolt right on in place of your mag then the mag bolt to it. they usually go for better than $300 dollars. look for one on a H farmall they were most common thier. you'll need to paint it orange yourself since Allis didn't put them on thier tractors.

AJ, the pump that works on an IH mag/dist drive will also work on an A-C. So if this one does not get too spendy for you, it's what you're looking for. KipClap

I have seen some pumps for M's that have a gear drive on the front. I wonder how hard it would be to put the slotted mag drive on it and rework the front flange? The gear drive ones seem to sell for much less than the "slot" drive.

The voltage and alternator have nothing to do with the hydraulic pump. If you have a distributor conversion on it, remove that, bolt the pump on and add you distributor to the back side of the pump. It's that simple.

I would be content just running one off the side with a pully style set up if I can figure out what pump to get that would work.
