Matt...I run my hydraulic winch off my pwr steer pump...its designed that way and works slicker than snot.. 10,500 lbs pull at an idle off my 4X...try it you might like it..the only thing I see negative would be the volume aspect..my real log splitter uses quite a bit of fluid pumped through it in order to cycle quickly and the one you would build may work so slowly that the tree would start to grow roots again before the thing cycled.
