Hallo Eivind,
welcome in our forum, let me try to explain:
A PTO can be mounted, but You need the PTO-gear, the cardan shaft, the bearing bracket and the PTO shaft. With the same gear, a front PTO can be driven, the gear has flanges for both.
But I assume, the gear and the other parts will be very expensive new. Maybe You will get it used. Sometimes those parts are offered in ebay.
The brake system of the 440.162 (MBtrac 700) is hydraulic type with air pressure assistance.
The difference of the brake pedal performance with/without air pressure is only a little and the tractor must brake without air pressure only needing a little more power at the pedal. So it seemes to have a malfunction.
Maybe You only have to evacuate the air from the system.
Try to find out, what type of brake power assist unit is mounted. Later built tractors had it mounted under the hood in one unit with the master cylinder, older ones had it behind the drivers cab in the frame. This older version has only a master cylinder under the hood and an additional slave cylinder behind the cab. This one also may need evacuating.
All brake parts needed can be ordered including repair-kits for the brake power assist unit or master cylinder and wheel cylinder. Master and wheel cylinder may be replaced by new ones if the cylinder surface is corroded.
Please feel free to ask for further questions!
Good luck!
Holger

Die 3 MBtrac-Grundsätze:
1.) Ein MBtrac ist zwar nicht alles, aber ohne MBtrac ist alles nichts!
woraus folgt:
2.) Ein Leben ohne MBtrac ist möglich - aber sinnlos...
doch zum Glück für die vielen Nicht MBtrac Besitzer:
3.) Nur wer einen MBtrac besitzt, weiß, was allen anderen fehlt...
