Very Nice! Your pics will be very helpful when I get around to doing the same thing! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif What did you use for handles on the valve?

Thanks for asking, I had meant to include that part in the original post!
I had thought I could source the correct handles from Danfoss, Finally found a local dealer, and after 2 weeks of calling and them blowing me off, they finally replied with a cost of like $45.00 a piece! Yeah Right!
So I got some 5/8 round bar and made them myself, modeled them after the ones on the log splitters at TSC. It was a PITA to get them the same and work properly, but we all have unlimited time right?
So, after all said and done... I would have gotten this EATON-CESSNA valve from the SurplusCenter, They have replacement handles should one break, and the PB sleeve if it is needed in your application.

I had thought that originally, But the IN/OUT fitting size is actually larger on the Eaton valve (SAE 8) compared to the Danfoss (SAE 6), I am not sure why they are rated so differently, The 4110 is rated 5.1 GPM, so I think the Eaton one will do the trick easily.
And here is a POST where we discussed it in more detail a while ago.

At least one poster here on TBN (8561) is using that Eaton-Cessna valve with the power beyond sleeve to run rear remotes. I know because I fabricated the mounting bracket for him. It is a nice small compact unit and I believe it's made in the USA. The main thing you should be concerned about is that its gpm rating equals or exceeds your tractor's implement pump gpm.

As Mad said, I do have the Eaton Cessna on my rear remotes, I have the three spool version with power beyond. It works well, is small and seems to be well made.

That looks like it turned out great Kenny. What implements will/ can benefit from the rear remote? I can imagine a backhoe, but what others? (Newbie trying to learn /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif )

A backhoe would best be served by just the PowerBeyond hookup.
But remotes could power:
Log splitter
Hydraulic Top and Side links aka. TNT (top-n-tilt)
Dump Trailer
Grapple on bucket
Angle and tilt on a rear blade
Those are just some!
