That selector valve obviously made for a more costly kit. It also meant losing FEL functionality any time you engaged the BH - a cumbersome setup at best.

Yes it must have been around the same time as the Bradco kit changed in January 1st 2003.
But even on the newer Bradco kit shematic it says "Switch coupler connection to operate loader" which is incorrect, as the flow to the loader is not interupted, it is the flow to the tractors rear hydraulics, three point & remotes.
It appears the early selector valve was to switch between loader or BH.
Looking at a picture of the Danfoss loader valve it seems to not have a PB port.
