Default Hydrostatic pump durability discussion

Next project: Kohler command 20 swapping a 129! (maybe)

It’s very rare to hear about a hydro pump giving out on any IH cub, and they don’t seem to wear out on a 16 horse either. I’ve done research on v twin swaps and found everything it needs to work right (flywheel driveshaft adapter, heavier driveshaft, mounting plate, etc) but i’m curious to hear everybody’s experiences with hydro pumps. I would use it to pull a trailer on my property with many hills, and a 3 speed climbs the hills too fast in 1st and creeper gearboxes are hard to find for a reasonable price, so the hydrostat will have to do. So do please tell your stories with hydrostatics, and keep in mind this is just an idea of mine that hasn’t been taken seriously (yet)
