I think I have three options:
1) replace the PTO driven ASME type B pump that is fixed to the backhoe,
2) purchase a PTO pump and hoses,
3) or hook up the backhoe to my tractor's Hydraulic Block.
I am not crazy about option 3 since it means my precious Glide Shift transmission is sharing fluid with my back hoe.
Regarding option 2, will the PTO Shaft Cover be in the way? Does it provide the restraint needed for a PTO pump?
TIA
