Not to hijack the thread but what can I do with two rear remotes that I couldn't do with only one?
One remote to run grapple. James Koua has a great thread on fashioning an extended lever for this. I just ordered a TNT for my box blade. It gets old really quick as you continually mount/dismount to adjust top link and tilt for box blade. I should have my TNT in a week or so. Than when I am using the boxblade simple matter of using the RR levers toi adjust tilt and top link.
So 2 rear remotes for the box blade. When not using box just run a set of lines from one remote to your grapple. Be careful of deadheading. This is where you leave the detent on and risk burning out your hydraulic pump. Here is a great link on disabling the detent :

The standard RR comes with the detent feature. The second one did not. Oddly, I asked my dealer to remove detent on the remote prior to delivery and was told this was not possible. i think they were concerned about some sort of liability isue.
Clearly it CAN be done quite easily.
Anyway, get a second rear remote. Sort of like HP. Can you ever really have too much ??
Good luck.
