Can't seem to sleep tonight.
Rather than build a Hydra-Creeper gearbox, you can go with a cleaner solution. The expensive planetary you see below was purchased for around $75 on eBay. They come in all different ratios and HP's. I am using this 3 to 1 ratio unit to speed up the one-of-a-kind right side Electrall. They work even better as reduction units.
So you have three options here.
1. Attach a small hydraulic motor on the high speed side and then attach the complete unit to your PTO.
2. Remove one final drive and place it between the final drive and the housing it attaches to.
3. Stuff it in your torque tube.
This all pre-supposes that you have a lathe and perhaps a milling machine. Older machine tools are dirt cheap now. I have been to machine shop auctions where good old iron have received no bids. The junk man won't even bid because he cannot handle them.
