Hydraulic Conversion

Hi all, I'm putting a hydraulic vibrator on the bottom of my dump bed. I have an f450 with a DC electric motor that currently powers the pump. That pump came with the truck and dump body and is used for the dump bodies cylinder. I'm trying to get an idea of how much gpm it is capable of. Any one know what is typical? I'm looking to get 5gpm out of it hopefully.

Thanks, Andrew

Your best bet is to look for any identifying information on the pump and talk to the manufacturer if its not labeled on the pump itself. I don't know that there is a "typical" for dump cylinder pumps as there are so many different companies outfitting dump bodies of all different sizes and loads.
