Could even install a suction tube into the oil from that point also.

You don't need a PTO for a front pump. It can run all the time.

I'm just making comments..... I would also go the ported pump route. Sorry, no extra ones laying around.
I agree, FWIW, on hydraulic comments. Nightow1, (Keith) AKA... HIGH SPEED, has a really nice ported hydro and rear end. He's been wanting to sell it for a while now.
