Rear Remote Mounting Opinions

[avc8130]

I'm working on adding some rear remotes to my Kubota L45. I'm seeking some opinions on where to mount the valves and the quick disconnects. I got a chance to explore a few spots this afternoon. Here are what I have come up with on my own:











Any advice/opinions?

ergonomics and hose routing should be the deciding criteria IMO...

Good luck and have fun...!

Some rear remotes yeah I see 4. does this model come with remotes as an option? If so could swing by dealer if possible and see where factory mounts these good luck I like your wiliness to do this.

Remotes are an option, but good luck finding a dealer with a construction tlb on stock let alone one with remotes by me. The 3 point hitch is an option most guys don't order. It's rare to find a tlb owner who even knows how to take the hoe off.

With hoses and QD's added it may be crowded. Maybe a joystick would be better with the valve(s) under the platform like in your other thread.

Looks great, but I'd double check it with seat facing forward and hand on the FEL joystick - how close is your elbow to hitting the first valve block?

Miles of room in either position facing forward.

Once the hoses and QD's are added it could be a little crowded. How about a joystick control with the valves mounted under the platform? What kind of implement will this be for?

The QDs will be remotely located. I'm still working through that too.

How easy is it to rig up a joy stick? Never seen that before.

Implements tbd. Right now i have a TNT ready to go.

I went to Kubota Tractor Corporation - Parts List put in the L45 and found the 3 function remotes (listed under options as T15000 AUXILIARY CONTROL VALVE LEVER (3RD) (W/G No.L9553)).
It looks like the stock ones sit under the side panel and are controlled through the 3 slots in the back of the RH plastic panel.
