<font color="blue">Is three SCV's enough? I'm getting conflicting data from different dealers. </font>
See attached pic of my TnT on my JD 4710. I have 5 total SCVs.....three for front end operations.....2 for rear. You need three up front to operate a 4in1 bucket...specifically, they will control your lift, curl/dump, and clamshell opening functions. The 2 in the rear will operate your top and tilt functions respectfully.
<font color="blue"> Specifically, one says I need to have a fausse valve in order to use the tnt. </font>
Not so. The Fausse valve is just a button that's installed on the top knob of the FEL joystick. Pressing it allows you to divert hydraulic functions from front to rear to operate TnT without having to move your hand from the joystick. You don't need it, unless if you want to spend an extra $700-800 for having this convenience. This is what my dealer was quoting me. Instead, just go with the regular diverter lever that's installed in front of the FEL joystick, which is a standard JD dealer install protocol.
