Dennis, how difficult is installing a couple of remotes for a tired old man?
I would like to have a couple
Also do you know how much the kit runs from Bobcat for a CT235?

Same as Kioti, right?

No, coupler on the tractors are 1/2 Ag style, poppet type

I think Daedong changed parts pricing discount to Bobcat, seems like last time I looked the 2 valve rear remote kit had gone up in price some. I think they are about same price as Kioti now, used to be close to $200 less.
It is the exact same installation as the Kioti. Take off the seat w/plate, remove 2 nuts and round flat cap on side of the 3pt case, remove the 2 studs, screw in the longer studs, slide the valves on the studs, reinstall the flat cap and nuts, connect the steel tube lines from the work ports going back to the couplers, install the control levers, start-up to test for leaks, and put seat back on. Took me about 2 hrs. if remember correctly.

Thank you sir!

Price hasn't changed as much as I thought. Individual dealer price will vary but should be able to get the 2 valve kit for $650 or little less, depending on shipping.

I am in the process of doing the second remote install on my tractor. I should have pictures in a few weeks. By pulling the seat/pan and lever cover there is good access. Whats funny is the Kioti instruction say to pull the fender and remove the tire in addition. I can see where pulling the fender might help, but I will try without doing it.

I will (hope) to be installing the Kioti second kit that has the float feature on the second valve. The bobcat second valve ones do not have this feature. Kioti prices are a bit higher than Bobcat (roughly $450) for the second kit) but discounts can be found. I think my first single bobcat kit was in the $290 range, but not sure. I had the dealer install and got a steep discount on the parts . I think I covered it in my previous threads.

An update to this thread. The Kioti second valve kit Part number 322027 does fit and has the float feature. Just be sure the packaged valve says double acting float before buying
