[QUOTE="1ofU, post: 70074, member: 7410"] using more of the forklift for another project the tilt cyclinders for a log splitter , i thought the cyclinder were larger last year when i took them off the mast , they are 25X 1.5 bore i thought they had a 2 inch bore so i wasnt sure if a 1.5 bore would be large enough so i decided to use both cyclinders in this build so it should do the job, this build is going to be so you can run it off the Bobcat as well as mounting it on a T trailer and have quick connects and run it off of a 10 hp motor pump system i will show pics when that part of the project is completed as well , so I'm about 2/3 done with the splitter for the bobcat will show more pics when it up and splitting wood ,, anyway here is some pictures of the project . i used the mast of the forklift for the splitter beam the inner are 3/4 thick and the outer was 1/2 thick i have it so the splitter assembly can be slid back and forth if it needed any adjustments . it's turning out to be a heavy hunk of steel .
