Well I did it. Today I installed the 300CX Third Function Loader Arm Hydrallic Oil lines and hoses - down the arms on my 300X!! Loader!! It was definately made for the 300CX and does not fit a 300X nice and easy. The oil lines had to be rerouted to work on the 300X. No problem. Found a new spot for them - used the JD line clips in a couple new spots and everything was just fine. If I did not tell you it was not supposed to work on the 300X, no one would ever know.
Had to go buy some JD hydraulic fluid and a pair of split ring pliers. Hooked everything up and there were no leaks. Zip tied everything nice and clean, added the fluid and then went out and used my snow blade with the hydraulic angling function! Very cool. Now if I ever make a grapple for the loader all the hydraulics will be right there.
Probably a good thing I did not have my dealer install it as he probably would not have "made it work" like I did .
Pictures coming soon.
