No loader, older model, I want to say 1984. Any way to add hydraulics to this, I'd like to have remotes for a hay tedder. I've done it on 3 cylinder Fords, and fairly cheaply, but I'm not coming up with much on this one.

Yep you can add a valve just need to buy or more likely make the plate to tap into the hydraulics.
I haven't seen a factory plate in years.
The adapter changes out this plate in yellow:

My L305DT has a 1200 loader with the tap is at that point.
I want to put rear hydraulics to run 3pt backhoe. Would I fabricate a new adapter block that feeds loader and rear hydraulic from this same point?

Nope no new block needed you go from block to loader valve then to the rear to a loop for the BH then back to the block.
You will need to make sure you come off the PB and not the tank outlet of the loader valve.

How many hydraulic lines are presently connected to your loader valve..... 6 or 7?

Dave
Seven lines: one from pump under seat, two to/from curl cylinders two to/from lift cylinders, one from main loader valve to spring loaded valve underneath to run forward cylinder for blade, and one return from said valve back to pump under seat.

In a more direct way NIW provided you with the way to achieve the BH circuit.

My question re # of lines was to determine if your loader valve already had a power beyond port ((PB) which with 7 lines it does.

From your description this is the PB line. one from main loader valve to spring loaded valve underneath to run forward cylinder for blade,

Your BH valve should have a PB port to maintain the PB circuit. Assuming your BH valve hs its own relief valve, it will also need a Tank line which is just a dump back into the transmission for oil the relief valve is trying to get rid of.

What you need to do is to break the PB line to the spring loader valve and put the BH valve in the middle of this circuit.

The line (PB) from the loader valve becomes the IN line on the BH valve. The PB line on the BH valve takes over and feeds the spring loader blade valve.
