adding remotesto my 600

i told you the PB plate sandwiched under the oem blank plate.. so thus.. there is NO WAY the new valves could bolt to the PB plate.

there is not much room under the seat to mount a valve ank that size.. I'd go on hood right or left side or fender.. but i guess you could rig something.

3 DA valves will give you top n tilt and a remote, as MVR mentioned.. you REALLY only need 2 cyls/valves for TT

IF only needing 2 DA valves, and never needing another.. you COULD find an oem or tisco valve set that DOES bolt right on the top cover IN PLACE of the oem BLANK plate that the PB plate would sandwich underneath.

typically the Dual DA valves go for about 350+/- used.

that would be less actual work.. and would get the valve handles under the seat for you.. again.. if you only wanted 2. still.. you always have the option of mounting that PB plate UNDER the oe style 2 valve bank at a later time to pick up more valves if needed, if you decided to get a remote set late.

so your call.

easy... or cheap.. or kinda both.

all depends on what valves you want and how you want to deal with hoses. oem 2 spool da set is less work and hoses.. and not a whole lot mor emoney .. or maybe none at all more once you buy 2 generic valves AND a pb plate and the hosing to connect between them.

I'd go that way.. used DA dual spool oe style for fords from 55-75...

what is a float function? i don't know anything about this stuff i was just thinking that if i hade one on each side it would be better . it might cause me problems and i will just run the three being that you said 4 could be a problem. im depending on you guys im new to remotes i have never used any.

Having the float function will allow you to finish grade-smooth at say a Y intersection on a driveway where the slope of the road twists at the transition. The implement will follow the grade instead of the tractor. This works very well. Many other uses, this is just one that I use often.

thanks i hate to sound foolish but i would like to ask a question. i found a adapter kit on e bay it says the kit has three ports pressure ,power -byond and return i pretty much have a idea where the return t is and what it is for but i don't know about the pressure or the pb port arn't they the same?
