I don't think it would have enough GPM flow to run it.

I say try it, part of owning a tractor is doing stuff with it that other people only dream of.. I've got a brand new bx23 and trying all kinds of stuff this idea is just way to cool

No, just trying to help him do it in a way that works. It can be done, it has been done.

I use a 7' brush hog that was designed for the front. It has a front wheel and a hinge built into the attachment plate, so it can follow the ground contours.

We're not trying to discourage anything.
Just trying to weed the "stupid" out of a "neat" idea.
Not all neat ideas are stupid, but many have a stupid component within them.
For instance:
Not having the hog's curl angle adequately limited during use and eating a thrown blade would be stupid.
And tragic.

i'm hoping i can find a motor that will work with what i have if not i guess i'll have to do a up grade.

Here are some pictures that show the front view with the safety chains and the cutting height adjustment.



Here is the same brush hog set to the highest cutting position, mounted on the V417
