I want to build an attachment for my backhoe to replace the bucket with a regular riding mower deck. I can handle the fabrication aspect but I'm 100% in the dark on the hydraulics. The deck is your standard issue murray 2 spindle belt drive. I'm wondering if I should use 2 motors or one that drives the belt and then the spindles. I also have no idea of what size, flow, rpm's, etc would be needed for something like this. I have an LS XR3037 with rear remotes at about 8gpm. For now I'm thinking I'll just stick with the movement limits that a back hoe provides, I'm not wanting to rotate or tilt the deck beyond whatever movement a bucket would have.
