Installing tilt hitch

[Pedrod355]

Does anyone know where i can get a bolt on manifold? Don’t want to weld it on!

Bolt down some plate over the top of it?

 

[V8Druid]

or weld the manifold to a larger plate and bolt that down

 

[Pedrod355]

Where’s best to get manifold? So am presuming you don’t get a bolt down?

make one? ... 'spect Aiden @CPS 'll be able to supply you

No, you'll have to fab it somehow. cast dipper?

Would this hydraulic clamp work, Just clamp two straight hose joins to it then run pipes either side?

I have that on one of my machines for a Hill Tefra hitch.

You'll have to weld it, IMHO bolting it is a recipe for disaster. be sure to tack it first and check the geometry as it's a utter prick of a design and if placed wrong it will eat hoses.

I have some on the self, they are bolt on versions although I normally weld them as I don't like drilling booms/dippers etc

 

[Pedrod355]

Excellent I”ll DM you. I don’t want to weld new machine & am not capable

What are you bolting it too?

Flowfit probably do one they have a massive range

they do, but couldn't find one a few weeks back when this was being discussed

Is this what i need for plumbing in hydraulic tilt hitch ?

You won't be able to weld on the aluminium blocks. I see they come with bolt holes though.
Also the are typically manifolds so all open but what you possibly want is two separate circuits in one block

Can't see them taking the pressure being aluminium.
If you get some sites across we'll make one to suit

Thanks for clarifying that was what was confusing me that they looked open right through.

Where does everyone fitting a hud hitch purchase from? Cant find any
