jim_wilson mentioned there has to be three lines, but the supply line is the important line. It is as long as it needs to be to connect parts.
The OUT and drain lines can go to the nearest port to tank.
I believe if I shift flow - I only need two lines over to the added valves. I need a pressure line (in) - and an out line. If I don't shift , and just add the additional valves in series with the existing hydraulics - then I'll need to have three - because I need pressure in (from the FEL valve PB) - I need "out" to feed the downstream hydraulics like the backhoe and the 3pt that will be in the series - and I will need a (or at least I believe I will need a) tank drain line - because I'll likely add a motor control spool - and the literature I've read on this says they all need a return to tank and not just an "out" (which goes to additional valves down stream and can be pressurized)
