Ford F450 Tow Truck Failure Analysis of Hot Shift PTO
Channel: HYDRAULIC.ONLINE GOLD COAST
Date: 20/11/2023

The final battle was to get a Ford F450 tow truck back on the road after an aftermarket Magnetic PTO system we installed earlier in the year could not produce enough grip to run the hydraulic pump. 
In a last-ditch attempt I strip inspect and rebuild the original transmission mounted Hot Shift PTO that was caused all the trouble in the first place.
Hot Shift PTOs have their own internal multi-plate wet clutch system and are used exclusively on automatic transmissions.  
Hot Shift PTOs use an electrical solenoid valve and the transmission's oil pressure to engage the clutch pack and turn a hydraulic pump to produce oil flow and pressure required by the tow truck's hydraulic functions.
