No front pto here, but you can get a hydraulic pump with the through shaft for one. A bit extra weight on the front to help it go round corners wouldn't go amiss eitherhttps://www.pthaustralasia.com/pthproducts.cfm/product/pth-abr-magnetic-braking-system

Its a john deere we are talking about ...But the head gasket withstands combustion pressures high enough to ignite diesel?
But understand your line of thought .................
Test pilots need not apply
No turbo to worry about on it anyway... No air either..After the turbo ..................
Go for the solid sliding valve plate, have you air available, if so head for a truck breaker.
No idea how the engine will respond, but its owner driven isn't it?
Old NPR baby Isuzu had a switch on the dash, so if you had it switched on, when you took your foot off the accelerator the brake would instantly apply, magical stuff.
Ford Transcontinental with Cummins engine had a solid plate valve and were the most efficient. Butterfly type always tend to leak a bit, especially after a bit of work.
Some of the Welsh sheep lads, pulling two trailers with the D-Max might find this interesting

Aw that's harsh, the head gaskets never been a problem with it, it's been everything else that's gone wrongIts a john deere we are talking about ...

I believe trains run magnetic brakes
Saw one of these on a stand at SIMA. Pretty sure it wasn't a PTH branded unit, there was however a lot of interest over it at the stand. I thought it was a new compact dyno at first glancehttps://www.pthaustralasia.com/pthproducts.cfm/product/pth-abr-magnetic-braking-system

Would you want it baking the engine each time you took your foot off the accelerator?
I did read somewhere the reason trains start struggling when a oak leaf or flake of snow is on the track is because of dynamic and disc brakes as the old steel block to wheel used to keep the steel tyres clean..
That front PTO brake has potential only in a simpler form.
Dont think thactor makers actually understand whats needed.
Our need is a means of retarding on long downhill runs, at the moment we have success with using the dolly brakes as a seperate system for putting a braking load on independantly
from the main system. A simple disk brake driven off the pto would achieve the same effect of slowing the rig down but not used as a stopping brake.
Thinking about it, at the tractor desugn stage a simple brake band could be integrated around the flywheel or anywhere else that rotates.
Main trick would be not to mention BRAKE in the same paragraph as the retarding system
I see what you ase saying, but maybe you are overthinking a bit, Our main hill is maybe a half mile long, knowing the road we know when to change down a few gears.
Because the hill varies in steepness, some places even a suitable gear needs some help, I was thinking a single lorry disk brake with easily accessable pads mounted at the fromt.
As said, not being used as a brake as such but more of a retarder
