Hooka Rig Interact Reply Quote Report To Mod Last Posts Ignore User Global Ignore Whisper Hello all, I am coming up to Alaska this summer to prospect a yew areas and I want t make a hooka rig set up to bring along. My idea would be to have a small motor 3hp and pump with a t-80 mounted to it but to be able to remove the t-80 when I am prospecting areas where I would be using the motor and the pump as a highbanker and then put everything back together when I am in a area I want to dive. I have built a lot of hooka rig setups for commercial shellfishing here in Florida but without a water pump on them. How do you set up the whole deal,motor, pump,t-80? Thank you, Seb

Re: Hooka Rig Interact Reply Quote Report To Mod Last Posts Ignore User Global Ignore Whisper Most of the major manufactures of gold dredge equipment use the same design for the small pump/engine combos. The engine has a 5/8" externally threaded crank shaft. The water pump bolts directly to the engine and the impeller is threaded on the shaft. A small pulley is slid on the shaft between the pump and engine to drive the Thomas T-80 compressor. The whole assembly is mounted to a motor plate that can be again mounted to your dredge frame or Tote Float. There are a few other variations but that is the most common design.
