I have a 1650 I just picked up with the hopes to turn it into a mini backhoe/loader. Ordered PF engineering plans to build but came across a small loader off a yanmar garden tractor that dimensionally will fit just need to modify my subframe a bit my question is there anyone out there that has up close pics or advice on mounting/plumbing. I'm a plumber by trade but hydraulic sizing and gpm is all new to me so I'm trying to get input on what kinds of pumps guys are running and how they're driving them and plumbing them. I know the loader was off a yanmar that had hydraulic pump and everything built into it so I assume I'll need to add a punp off the front pto I'm just lost with which one to get and how to size it for the future back hoe I plan on building. Thank you in advance as I'm a novice to forums as well
