1. A driveline system comprising:
a hydraulic coupling configured to rotationally couple to a prime mover and including an output interface configured to rotationally couple to a downstream driveline component; and
a power take-off (PTO) assembly comprising:
a first pump gear rotationally coupled to an input gear that is directly coupled to the output interface, wherein the first pump gear is configured to rotationally couple to a first pump via a first pump shaft interface; and
a first pump adapter including at least one mounting flange configured to mount to the first pump,
wherein the at least one mounting flange axially overlaps a section of the hydraulic coupling that includes an impeller and/or a turbine.
