Hello everyone,

I recently helped someone with box blade work using a tractor with draft control, and now I'm eager to add it to my MX5400 ROPS. My tractor has three rear remotes, with the second remote featuring a float detent.

From what I've read, Kubota suggests that a spool with a detent cannot be used with draft control and I would have to replace it with a spool without a detent. However, after inspecting the remotes, it seems the only difference is a slightly larger assembly at the bottom for the detent spool. The parts diagrams suggest it shouldn't interfere, but I'm not entirely sure.

Could anyone with an MX5400 or MX6000 that has draft control share pictures of the linkage and the area where it connects to the hydraulic cylinder case? Any insights or advice on installing draft control with a float spool would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
