I don't agree with what you said because ALL "live" PTO setups have two clutches. Some use a double clutch within the foot clutch, others have a electric switch to rurn them or a lever to turn them on. None run the tranny or rearend. But, they are all "live" PTO. "Independent" PTO, means you turn the PTO on "independently" of the foot clutch. Usually it's by pulling a lever, or these days by flipping an electric switch on, on the dash. All the tractors that run the PTO through the tranny (like a Allis Chalmers WD) really aren't live PTO, they are just putting a second clutch to stop one side of the rearend. The tranny is still running, one axle is still running, and so is the rearend. These are the tractors that are in the "grey" area of what "live" PTO is, but they "really" aren't "live". They do work as well as a live PTO setup though. Robert
