Power beyond loader valve question

[Sawzall]

Hi new here,
I have a L3450 with Woods dual loader. The loader valve is shot on the up/down spool. I’ve determined this is a “power beyond” valve with a supply and return hose from a block on side of tractor to valve as well as a third hose from valve returning to a third port on the block which in turn powers the 3 point lift. These valves are quite expensive compared to a standard 2 spool valve available all over for $80-$100 compared to $1200 for the power beyond valve.
Here’s my question. On the side block port supplying the valve, can I just tee it there and with a short hose attach it to the third port so three point will work? Thanks in advance.

That way I can just use a standard valve for the loader

I’m not sure what you’re asking. The flow has to start at the pump and then to the loader valve then the power beyond from that valve goes to the 3 PH. The third line is the tank return.

You can not Tee into the line from the pump. The pressure will always go to to the lowest pressure line and then never make anything lift.

You can bypass the loader valve but then your loader would not work at all.

You can buy aftermarket valves for the loader but it must be open center and have power beyond.

@TheOldHokie can provide you with information about what valve you can use if he comes along

I think your trying to over complicate an easy solution.

No that will not work. Plenty of very modestly priced loader valves with power beyond available online. Here is another link to add to the ones you have already been given.

As said above, a decent joystick valve with PB is readily available for a good price.
