Rear Remote

I have a L3302 with Land Pride 3rd Function. Does anyone make a rear remote kit that includes just a bracket, and hoses with connectors and quick disconnects that would connect directly to my 3rd function valve? I just want to have it available when needed for a hydraulic top link etc. I would just disconnect the 3rd function hoses from the valve that run up the FEL for my grapple and then connect the rear remote hoses to the valve. My plan is to switch between the two. Not ideal I know, but I think it would work in a pinch.

Why use the third function valve? Why not come off the FEL valve power beyond port to hook up the rear remotes? You might have to make the third function become first before the FEL valve (if I recall how they hook up correctly).

Yeah, your way works great and gives true simultaneous use, but it costs 3-5 times more money and adds another valve I have to find a place for, if I understand you correctly. I'm a first tractor owner here and learning my way around! (and trying to reduce cost!) Since I'm probably going to use a hydraulic top link or a different attachment every once in a while, I’m fine swapping two quick-couplers in 30 seconds if you think it's feasible?

  1. Can you precisely feather your grapple close and open with your 3rd function? - If you can (since you need to do that for a toplink), just buy a 1/4" hydraulic hose to run it to the rear.​
Yes, I can feather the grapple fine. I think you're saying to run a couple hoses from the 3rd function front coupler to the rear? I was thinking the added length would negatively effect the hydraulic pressure? I know my 33hp doesn't have the strongest hydraulic unit.

Yes you can just use the existing valve and longer hoses to control the rear hydraulic cylinder(s). I guess I would just use long hoses connected normally at the cylinder with a disconnect at the third function valve. Then have disconnects at the grapple hoses so it is easy to swap when you need to.

I have no idea how you would route the hoses but I think you need to keep them inside the rear fenders to keep them protected.

I can disconnect my grapple and use the same hose to connect to something in the rear. I don't have it where the hoses are connected to the loader, they are just draped over the front tube.

Ok, got it. That sounds like a good idea. I could just pull off the existing hose clamps on the loader and secure the hoses using something more temporary. So when I need hydraulics in the rear, I can just disconnect and flop the hoses over to the rear.

Right idea but wrong plumbing. You connect it to the power beyond loop at your 3rd function and it works just like factory remotes. Always connected and ready to use.

I teed the outputs of the third function valve running a pair to the front for the grapple and a pair to the rear.
I use that set to angle my rear blade or rake when needed.

I never use both at once but if the grapple was mounted I could just disconnect those hoses.
I also use the rear pair for my BH77 thumb and just paralleled the switch contacts to the back too.
