Heck YA!

A couple of years ago I installed a DEERE #44 hydraulic drive tiller on the 3-point hitch of my New Holland GT75 LGT.

The GT75 has a PTO in the front that's very similar to the setup your "430" has.

I used a short PTO shaft from the rear-facing shaft of the front PTO to drive the tiller's hydraulic pump.

I made a bracket for the pump that attaches to the "belly mower" mounts and the whole setup is easy to remove, if desired.

IIRC, both your tractor and mine have a forward-facing PTO shaft, as well, and the pump could also be driven from there.

Also, (again IIRC) I believe the PTO's on both machine run at 2000 RPM.

All you need is a pump of the correct rotation, with a displacement that will give the flow you need that's rated for that speed and a mount and an appropriate drive setup.

Check out SurplusCenter.com for a variety of pumps.

My tiller has it's own reservoir, so nothing need to be changed there.

What are you running with the hydraulics?

I've seen some loaders for machine of this size that drive the pump off of the front PTO, as well.

I don't recall, offhand, the model number of a DEERE loader that would fit a 430, would be interesting to look in the parts catalog to see what they used for hydraulics.

I'm building a front end loader I know welding and metal and nothing about hydraulics would it be worth using the four ports on the front of the tractor and thanks for your replies
