Got a L2850DT with BF 550 fel, toying with the idea of replacing the control valve and joystick with a newer model. Hoping to gain some finesse with the controls and float position. Anybody successfully accomplished this?

Done several swaps, it does make them much smother.
I would avoid regen valves, they don't work very well with older hydraulic systems.

Thanks Wolfman, any suggestions as to type or sources for replacement of the controls?

Hands down, surplus center.

Open center with power beyond
