You'll get several different answers on here regarding sulkies on gear drives.
I ran a sulkie on my 32"/12.5hp walk behind on some yards, it didn't like hills at all (the motor was enough for it, had belt issues) so I just ran it on the bigger wide open yards. I think you'll be fine with it.

I have a Velke on my 36" Gravely belt drive and it pulls me fine. You should be OK.

i have 36's with sulkies that run all day and there are gear drives and they are fine. a sulkie will cut your mow time down pretty good.
