Looking to add a 2 spool valve to run the loader and keep my remote open on the tractor. I should be able to put a T in the line coming off the pump and going to the remote valves correct? from the T I would put a quick coupler on it. Now for the return I should be able to put a T with a nipple on it into where the drain is for the sump, with a quick coupler on the T, and with a plug on the bottom to let me still drain the sump. This is the right way to go about it right? ------------- 2001 Gleaner R42, 1978 7060, 1977 7000, 1966 190 XT, 1966 D-17 Series IV and 1952 WD and more keep my farm running! |

| Ran ours in series with the existing remotes and added a separate loader remote. Thus did not change the use of the existing hydraulics (3 pt and hydraulics for equipment). |

| If you put a T inline you have to have a closed center valve system I think your tractor has open center valves so you have to put the new valve in serries with the current valves. Think of it as a water hose you put your finger over the end of the hose to make pressure to hit shameless on the other side of the room. Now desert Joe seeks in and puts a T in line thinking he will soak you. Well since the water just flows out the other side of the T with no pressure restriction shameless sits on the other side of the room dry laughing at both of you. |
