If his loader is like Dad's was (and I think it is), the tank is in the right loader tower (the one that the valve is mounted to). The tank goes from the back axle to the top of the loader tower and IIRC, the "tank" port on the valve goes directly inside the tank, down to the filter on the side of the tower (with a pipe inside the tank) and dumps back into the tank, so no external tank line to tee into. Hence my suggestion of welding a new fitting onto the tank/loader tower.

So the valve dumps directly into the loader upright? There is not even a fitting that goes into the upright? I had an old 580 Case that had the reservoir and loader controls similar to what this is, but I faintly remember some short lines being there. But this I do not know for sure and it would be fairly easy to get a return fitting into the tank.:thumbsup:
