I have been researching the crap out of hydraulics the last week or so. I have a 530 with a bad drive motor. No parts available to rebuild. The only salvage unit i can find is 1000 for a 40+ year old motor that could be on its last leg.

The eaton replacements range from 1700 to 2200 depending on weather you get it feom lps or crcomponents.
Thats alot for a machine i paid 4k for.

Well, i found a motor with nearly the exact specs as the old ross motor. Dynamic BMER series. Same pressure, torque, flow, shaft taper, mounting hole pattern. I will only have to machine a spacer to get the sprocket depth correct.
$430. The proper price range.

But the catch. There is always a catch.

These motors dont have a case drain. On my machine, the only fluid that flows through the hydro cooler is the flow from the case drain.

Is there a place on the pump i can tap for hydraulic pressure to flow through the cooler? Maby through a tiny orifice or somthing?

Any other method of getting the heat out of the system?
