Break the 4000 at the transmission/rear end coupling. The only real reason you need to open it is to reconnect the suction strainer when you reinstall the pump.... The pump itself is bolted to the right side of the housing. The main complication in removing it is getting the outlet line from the top of the pump to slide up into the flow control valve... there is a circlip on the tube that you slide down to facilitate that. Make sure you scrape all the old gasket off from behind the pump and install a new one... That's how you change a pump... better question might be... if you haven't gotten the old one out yet or pressure tested it... how do you know it's bad? There's a few other problems that are far more common that bad pumps on those tractors...
In terms of plows... a mounted 4-16 is about all the 5000 could hope to lift or pull. That may even be more than it will want for traction in some places though power will be fine. a 2 bottom rollover is plenty for it to lift... Purpose of a rollover is that you can plow from one side of a field to the other with no dead furrows or crowns. Keeps the field smoother... Some will argue they're quicker. Personally I think that's very debatable if someone lays their crowns/splits out correctly and doesn't work too wide of a land.
