Quick Disconnect block removal and replacement

[Frankb]

I have the B2601 tractor with quick disconnect block for FEL that leaks. I am completely replacing the block and mounting bracket with a new bracket and individual male and female connectors. I do not like the QD Blocks. I have all the parts, but never got any instructions on the removal of the block. I removed the two small mount screws, and now need to separate the lines from the block so I can install the new male and female connectors. I do not want to screw this up and cannot find any videos on replacing the leaky block.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey Frank -

I'm going to be doing something similar, except that I'm retaining the male connections and mounting plate on the tractor and just swapping out the loader side connections to individual female flat face.

This may help your quest to ditch the tractor side block:

appreciate the info. I decided to contact the dealer and they are coming to get the tractor and install everything for me N/C. Now I don't have to mess with it at all. We found out that the lines would need to be changed out as well due to the upward bend of the existing lines going to the block. The new mount requires the bends to be in a different area.
Thanks for the help and diagram.
