My PW and Carryall is a Hydraulic drive MU-2. My M37 is a Hydraulic drive LU-4. I still have not decided how I will power the LU-2 on my Power Giant. I am leaning towards a NV-4500 PTO.
I buy my PTO's etc from Brookline Machine Co
in Buffalo, NY 800-234-7544. Tom is a good guy to ask for, very helpful.
Tom at Brookline has told me that 'most', not all Chelsea Series 352 Bi-directional PTO's can be converted to different transmissions by changing drive gears. This opens possibilities for adapting a used Chelsea to the NV-4500 rather than buying new. Tom did mention.....before buying a used PTO to adapt, get all the numbers off the PTO and call him first. He will tell you if a gear change is possible.
