Just wondering if anyone sells a complete (3 point?) rear PTO hydraulic pump package. Would like to take advantage of the skid steer attachment on my loader, but several of the attachments (e.g harley rake) that i can rent locally have minimum gpm requirements that i can't reach with my onboard pump. Seems straight-forward to build one, but I'd like to see if i can just order one up first.

That and it would help me avoid rental STD's in my 'important' hydraulic fluid.

Most of the backhoe attachment vendors sell a PTO pump package with
pump, reservoir, and filter, but you may not want them.

If you are trying to get your compact tractor to run skid steer hydraulic
implements, you need to generate the hydraulic power required, not just
the hydraulic flow rate. Many SS implements demand 15 or more GPM at
3000 psi, which would require 31+ PTO hp, or a 40hp engine. CUTs typically
deliver 7-8.5GPM at 2000-2500psi.

Ah, didn't consider the pressure...i was just looking at GPM. Is there a crude formula to convert GPM x psi to PTO hp? I'm looking at 26hp at the PTO (Bobcat CT235), so it would probably be underpowered, especially since i didn't see a single 3000 psi pump on the list.
