Also I thought the 4,000 series came standard with a rear hydraulic remote hookup?

Yes, one set is standard, and it is a detent-style. I ordered the second set separately, along with the factory 3rd function kit.

The actual width depends on the tires. I have R4 tires, and the rear width is really close to 70. I have a 72" box blade so I can blade the full tire track width. Ag tires are narrower.
P.S.

The 72" Bobcat box blade is really heavy-duty. I don't have any worries about that breaking or bending any time soon.

Good point, I'm being quoted R1 tires so each tire probably is a few inches narrower.

I'm not the most knowledgeable on this but the function that comes standard would it work on a disc harrow that had wheels to raise and lower it?

update - the HSTs have one pair standard. The SSTs have two pair standard.

I don't think a harrow needs any aux hydraulics - just the 3-point lift arms.

Rear aux remotes were not included with my 2021 4045 SST. I purchased one rear remote and the dealer installed Ansung brand, who I was told is the Bobcat supplier.

I have only 15 hours on the tractor. To date the gas gauge is not working. Morover, SSQA did not connect properly with Mahindra pallet forks (appears to be Mahindra issue). Overall I'm pleased with the the tractor and dealer.

What is ssqa? I have only heard the bobcat system called 'bobtach' and, thus, assume it will only work properly with other bobcat equipment. I'd not even expect a mahindra attachment to fit.....

Bobcat's Bobtach system is compatible with SSQA - Skid Steer Quick Attach. Any SSQA can be used on the Bobcats. The locking mechanism seams to be a tight tolerance and is sometimes hard to lock even with Bobcat supplied pallet forks. Mine was tight when new, but generous lubricant and taking the attachments on and off numerous times has it working smoothly now.

Your question prompted some googling...... Bobcat invented the SSQA standard.
