I sold a Ford hydraulic pump to a KR owner a few years ago. Don't know what happened to it. They are common here in the junk yard stores, I think. Mine was off a Ford [12volt], and had enough power, all self contained. May be available on the aftermarket specialty web sites. It was to heavy compared my Thompson compressor which puts out 165 psig air and operated off a pressure switch, just like you home compressors. The hydraulic cylinders are heavy compared to aluminum air cylinders.
