PTO question
Can the PTO operate while the vehicle is driving? I am considering buying a 5500. I want to get a hydraulic winch and I was considering using a PTO hydraulic pump but I need to be able to drive and winch at the same time.

You can if you use a belt driven engine mounted pto. Usually anything on the tranny is designed for a "working while standing" operation.

Found the answer to my question.
From the bodybuilders guide - the PTO can be operated either stationary or moving. Moving feature must be enabled by dealer. You can set a speed limiter for moving operation up to 25 mph.

I have a chelsea 442 for the G56 and you can use it while moving it depends on the gearing you slected for the pto and your hydraulic pump..you don't want to over speed it but for winching you should be fine as its low speed.. my hydraulic pump is high pressure for my hoist ..etc

PTO application
Can anyone tell me what manuel tranny model years a aftermarket pto can be used on? I'm looking to get a hydraulic dovetail and winch combo on a gooseneck trialer to pull behind my 96 3500 and either I mount a pony motor which costs 4-5K or get a pto mount pump. Open to suggestions.

Most hydraulic winches run off of your power stearing (i.e Ramsey winches).The power stearing pump is a belt driven pto of sorts.But if the engine ever stops you out of luck on your winch.Warn makes a 16,000 pound electric winch, witch is 32,000 double line.

The 100% duty cycle is what sold me on them over battery-operated winches.
