I am an NAA newbie, am wanting to put a 3 point post driver on it. Looking at the info on the site about the top plate modification by "Paul Schultz". I think that my plate has been modified in the same way. but as I kept looking, a found PTO driven hydraulic pumps and am wondering is this would be an option for my baby. Any comments or suggestions. Thanks Norman

Several backhoes for use on N's and NAA's were powered by PTO driven hydraulic pumps.

These hydraulic systems were independent of the tractor's hydraulics and had their own reservoirs and control valves.

Many front-end loaders were powered by crankshaft-driven hydraulic pumps and were also independent of the tractor's hydraulics.
