I'm in the process of completing a backhoe for my Kubota tractor and I have a question regarding a hydraulic pump. At first I considered purchasing a PRINCE HC-PTO-2A but after reviewing the dimensions it looks like it will interfere with the structure around my pto. One way it hits the safety shroud the other the drawbar pin, in addition the side ports would make it difficult to attach hoses. I looked around the Surplus Center site and found two possible alternatives:
First, a 3.179 cu in PRINCE HYD PUMP SP25A52D9H2L with a 1-3/8 6T TO 7/8 BORE SNAP HITCH ADAPTER
Second a 4.46 FENNER HYD PUMP with a 1-3/8 6T TO 1 BORE SNAP HITCH ADAPTER
With the shaft attached, I would avoid clearance problems and using the formula, RPM = 231 x GPM / motor displacement I should get around 7.5 and 10.5 gpm respectively running of my 540 rpm pto. I would also save a few bucks as a bonus :thumbsup:. Are these good options or am I all wet?
Thanks in advance
