We have bought some Ex-Mil gear from a company in Lincolnshire ( i think). Including Power sets and even an MF50 Tow tug (pope-mobile). I'll get an address and post you next time I pop into work. I believe the Guy who runs the place is an Ex- RAF G.E.F fitter so has lots of experience with this kinda stuff.

Second Hand Hydraulic Rig
We have an ex military hydraulic rig which may be what you are looking for. Unfortunately I only deal with the company's finances so cannot give you much on the technical spec but I understand it is a Mk.12 Hydraulic Rig (DTD585) if that is any help. We are located at Bournemouth Airport and you are welcome to visit and view if you wish.

Why on earth would you have two hyd systems at different pressures. Did they not use a twin hyd system like the tonka. Was there any back up should one system fail? apart from accumulators and the such.
Dont get a mk 11 hyd rig, you will spend more money cleaning the hyd fluid of the floor than what you put into the system. Even the lads who fix them say they are crap.
