I've spent some time perusing the forum, especially regarding B219's (and discovered some great info regarding cleaning the filter screen!)
In any case, my question regards available hydraulic power. Since the FEL's pump is driven off of the front crank (PTO), does that mean that the engine's built-in pump is unused? Or, more appropriately, is utilized solely for the rear PTO?
The reason I ask, is that if I find a diverter plate that has holes tapped for Power Beyond, then I could conceivably use those for sourcing for use for fabricating power steering, without penalizing the FEL's operation?
