    Adding Rear Remotes if You Have a Backhoe

    You can just stick a solenoid valve on the hoe - put it in the input line ahead of the OEM valve. Instant electric thumb. Same idea as third function on the FEL. Dan

    BX2380 Hydraulic Top Link

    I figured something like that. You also have to replumb the main hydraulic ciecuit. Dan

    Adding Rear Remotes if You Have a Backhoe

    Understood and I feel the same but Kubota does it left and right. Would you like a hydraulic thumb on the backhoe????? Dan

    Adding Rear Remotes if You Have a Backhoe

    Well I know nothing about your backhoe but I believe that is correct. Its the two couplers you loop together when the backhoe is removed. Is there some reason you do not want to put the valves on the tractor permanently? Dan

    Adding Rear Remotes if You Have a Backhoe

    Fourth time this week. Short answer - the electric valves do not have power beyond. You would connect backhoe OUT on the tractor To IN on the electric valve baseplate. Tank on the baseplate must go to pressure return on the tractor if you want the 3pt and loader to work. You do not use...

    BF900 lever broke

    I don't know squat about that loader and I just did a quick scan of the parts diagrams but I don't think it would be a lot of fabrication work to retrofit this. Kubotafreak should have a better idea of what's involved...

    BF900 lever broke

    Once you hit $200 in repair parts a new aftermarket replacement valve starts to look real good. Dan

    Adding rear hydraulic hookup to L3940

    Link to rear couplers does not seem to work but otherwise yes. Dan

    BX2380 Hydraulic Top Link

    The BX23S and th BX25D appear to be identical.: The pump feeds the backhoe. This diagram shows the supply circuit with the backhoe disconnected. Hose 130 is pressure coming from the pump and coupler 140 is the pressure supply into the tractor's hydraulic system. To connect the backhoe you...

    BX2380 Hydraulic Top Link

    After looking at some parts diagrams its worse than I initially thought. On a BX25D the backhoe is plumbed straight off the pump and the FEL and 3pt valves are BOTH downstream of the backhoe. That's undoubtedly why Kubota switched to a three hose connection. Dan

    BX2380 Hydraulic Top Link

    I miss your point. The gentleman in the video is mistaken. His add on valve IS NOT the last valve in the circuit as he claims. His add on valve is ahead of and supplying pressure to the 3pt valve. He should be using the power beyond sleeve he originslly purchased and later discarded for that...

    BX2380 Hydraulic Top Link

    If those are the choices the longer one. Its 1.375 longer fully retracted - how often do you shorten the OEM link that much? Dan

    Adding rear hydraulic hookup to L3940

    You just need two roughly 10' long lengths of hydraulic hose with 3/8" make pipe ends and four female quick couplers. The OEM couplers for the front are 3/8" Faster HNV (ISO 7241-B) and they screw right onto the hoses. Then plug them into the male tips on your tractor. Here is a generic...

    Adding rear hydraulic hookup to L3940

    Is that the kit that replaces the front loader pipes with hoses and outlets in the rear?. If so easy to roll your own.
