I'm in the process of doing almost the same thing. I'm converting a PTO mower deck from an old golf course mower for use on a Bobcat skidsteer. TRK is right, 5.7 GPM is no where near enough. You'll need at least 15 GPM @2500 PSI to get the RPM and torque you need. Spindles and bearings shouldn't be a problem as long as you aren't drastically increasing the torque from your PTO system to hydraulic system. Go to Eaton Hydraulic's Char-lynn website and look at the 104 series motors. That's what's used on most hyd. drive mower decks. P.S. I got my hyd motor on Ebay for $100--about 1/4 of the new cost.

Feel free to email me with any questions.

Good luck!
