A hydrostat pump is nothing but a hydraulic type pump, but builds a lot higher pressure. If you keep the fluids clean, keep all your cooling fans, coolers, etc clean, a hydro will, after you loose the power from running the pump, give you more consistant power to the ground due to not having a clutch and pressure plate to slip and adjust as time is needed. Most hydro drive units are direct coupled to the driven unit. Most people who use gear dives for pulling do not want to loose the power required to run the pump. Now, I am using the knowlege from the lawn & garden industry, but they also use a hydrostat drive in a lot of construction equipment with good luck. so, I would have no problem using a hydro anything to do heavy work, most of the problems I see that is by having too light of driven unit, not the driver part.
