How hard is it to add remote hydraulics to a 2538? I guess you could plug into the FEL ports if it was off, but I'd like to have a set on the back for a log splitter or maybe a small folding hay rake.

My guess is not too hard but I let Mahindra or the dealer do mine. That way I had a clean looking install and all the right parts in all the right places from the day I got it and for not all that much extra. I did hold off on paying the exorbitant Mahindra price for the front 3rd function. Putting a switch on the FEL control lever can't look that bad no matter who does it. Even my dealer said it wasn't worth it and they'd install an aftermarket kit for a lot less if I ever needed one.
