I'm about 25ft away from the house. It's not too dark, but you can see the cutoffs and the light is pretty centered in the middle and doesn't have the width, not a big deal I expected that. Not like I'm driving the roadways at night....LOL. Most of my time is spent mowing, so not to worried...

I used the Matchbox projectors because they are small and will fit nicely inside of the housing without cutting or trimming anything. The only thing i didn't do was hook up the solenoid for the high beam activation. I didn't feel like wiring up a switch or having to run power to it. I should...

Yup, the reason I put those 7inch LEDs on the chute was because the headlights wouldn't shine past it very well. Also turning the chute with them on, I see where it's going and to make sure nothing magically appears where I want the snow to go. I'm actually going to remove the light bars and...

Night time, snow blower still on. Better than the 881 halogens or LED bulbs:

I will see I can do tonight

New hood/bonnet with the re-sealed headlight assembly: Ballasts & ignitors mounted to the hydraulic hood brace/mount: Relay wiring harness: Lights on and working: I think it turned out well. Need to get some night output shots to see how well it lights everything up. Only issue I...

Yellowed lens: Opened headlight with Morimoto Matchbox 2.0 projectors installed: Cleaned up lenses: Testing the lights & the alignment: Nice clean cutoff:

So, After doing some custom headlights for my 2018 RAM 1500, I was going to use a set of OEM fog lights and put some small HID projectors inside of them for a retrofit. I traded in my truck for a new Ram 3500 Laramie Longhorn, so it has all big upgrades so no need for any mods. So, the fog...

Now I'm confused.... So running a PTO pump off the rear into one of these? Or running a gear box off the rear PTO into one of these?

Again, @bernardine thank you for the assistance. Give me a lot to go in the direction I want.

Never been good at math....even with a calculator. :D So, seeing how there is not a specific PTO pump that has the 7.6 GPM flow rate, I would either have to go up or down with the flow rate...

Yeah, the upper end of NY, we tend to get the snow and below zero a lot, and I find that the wood furnace I have (just replaced and new double wall SS chimney) does a lot better job at keeping the house warmer than the oil furnace. I have a Stihl 660 and 391, both saw are awesome, but trying to...

So a minimum of a 7.6 GPM pump would be required. OK. What would happen if you went to a 4 inch or 101.6mm cylinder? So the radius would be 50.8mm So: 50.8 squared x 3.14 x 207 2580.64x3.14x207=18.84 tons? Or did I screw up my math? Looks right. So, if you went with a smaller sized...

So, pretty much, the rear PTO does not have enough speed even with a correctly sized PTO hydraulic pump/HP rating to run with enough pressure to push a cylinder to split wood with enough force? From what I can find out, most splitters are operating at or between 3000 to 3500psi. So a properly...

I have been using a regular old 22 ton Brave wood splitter. Most of the blocks of wood I still have on the ground are large and difficult to handle. These logs that were dropped off were from the local county and were free, so I didn't really have a choice in how big the wood was that got...
