I have a JD with auxillery hydraulic ports but without a rear PTO. You can buy a rear PTO kit for this machine but they are no longer sold in Australia and are very expensive. I was thinking about using the machines aux hydraulic port and control valve to run a hydraulic motor that acts as a rear PTO. I have found a few motors at surplus centre that run about 500-600 rpm and provide the adequate torque for my purposes. A link to a motor I had in mind is here.
I was just wondering has anyone attempted this before?
And what coupler is required to fit the pump shaft to a PTO shaft.
Thanks
Matt
