    ISO 5675 Push/Pull connectors

    My new Kubota has really nice push/pull connectors for the auxiliary valves and I would like to buy more of them. They are true "hands free" units... I don't need to pull or push any collars in order to connect the hydraulic hoses.... literally just push them in and pull them out. They have...

    I wonder if new made in China Kubota's could be imported.

    That looks scarily similar but much crappier than my Mexican M7040D. No cylinders on the 3-point, no hydraulic inverser etc. That said, the front axle, counter weight mount, hood, floor, fuel tank, fenders and 4x4 leaver look identical. Hopefully nothing on my tractor is Chinese.

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Hey Guys, thanks for all the help. My loader FINALLY showed up. I ended up ordering a Brand valve out of the US that will show up with a buddy this weekend. I finally pulled the tank plug out of the side of the transmission and I THINK you guys are correct about the thread. I bought a...

    Hmm ok, I see you point. So basically just add a second valve down the road. I suppose this makes sense too.

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    OK, I spoke with Brand and also had some thoughts/ideas. The Series 34 stackable valve is right out of the question because I don't need it and it'll be too expensive. The Brand 3-spool valve MB23TSTSTKLA3BW would cost me $558.02. It would have a standard spring centre on the first, single...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Yikes, ok. I had a suspicion that the sectional valves would be more expensive but I suppose I don't need to buy everything at once. I mean, by that same logic I could probably buy a 2 spool valve with joystick and add extra stuff later on. I'm just the type of person who likes to explore all...

    Yes, but it sounds like your summit valve leaked excessively.... I'm interested in the series 34 valves. Better flow and modularity. I might get crazy and stack some valves so I can have 3rd function and possibly a motor control. Power rakes look cool and I like to future proof. It will all...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Oh interesting. Were you conversing with them via ebay or via their email/website. Maybe the issue is that I tried to contact them through ebay. I will try though their website. If I can get a hold of them and they can combine a shipment a lot of my concerns will disappear. Sorry for the...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Ahhh ok, Perfect Hydraulic. Good to know it's not fly-by-night. Honestly, that valve with the cables is extremely appealing because that's the same system Kubota uses so I can make a little bracket and bolt it to my tractor. It would make for a very clean installation with the valve mounted...

    All great info, thanks Dan. Do you remember which polish distributor you got your Badestnost valve from? I wasn't familiar with Magister so thanks for that. They also have good prices on those valves. I had actually looked at the Brand website before but they don't have prices so I assumed...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Hi Dan, thanks for the reply. OK, good to know. The more I look the more it looks like everything available is Badestnost. It doesn't say on the Summit site, from what I can see, but the technical drawings and valve photos look exactly like the Badestnost products. The Summit pricing really...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    It's possible. I don't think I'm that lucky but maybe. Also, the bison valve will be a 2 leaver valve and it won't have a float function. I'm looking at valves that cost about $250-$300USD with 3 spools, a joystick, and float. I could possibly get a 2-spool with joystick and float and run a...

    Decent Loader Valve That Won't Bankrupt me?

    Hey Guys, I just bought an M7040D down in Mexico and I'm putting a 3rd party FEL on it because Kubota FELs are not available here, for some insane reason. Anyway, this 3rd party (*cough* Bison *Cough*) couldn't find their butts with both hands so I'm stuck trying to find a decent valve body to...
