Rear mount PTOs have been the standard in Europe for many years. They are typically easier to install because they are not subject to the interference problems common with side mounted power take-offs. They are becoming more common in North America due to limited access to traditional side mount transmission openings. Muncie in partnership with our European operations offers a wide range of rear mounted PTOs for foreign and domestic transmission applications, including the Eaton Ultra-Shift automated manual transmissions and the new Caterpillar fully automatic transmissions.
