The pump will put power to my loader, three point, and the hydraulic motor that will drive my manual shift rear end. I know this is not a fool proof plan, But I know it will work.
Also about the lack of power. The engine I have is rated a 90 hp I think. Now that is at a higher rpm. But still, It should have more then enought hp to move my little cub.
Also, I find no reason why I can not muffer my engine down. Might be a little loud, but load is fun. LOL

Ok. I have been working of equipment and with hydraulics for years. There isn't a pump out there that I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot, that will handle over 4000 RPM. So, you are going to have to gear it down. If you do that, you just as well use the hydro. Also, putting a hydraulic motor on the front of a gear drive, will be impossible to control. Hydrostats are designed and built with feather touch control. You won't be able to have enough control to drive a trans like that. But, you seem to have all the answers, so have at.
