Drill holes in the loader arm and tap them. Bolt it on and done.

Pay attention to the orientation and where your IN/OUT hoses are gonna go, and mount it logically.

Nope, a couple thousand pounds of hydraulic pressure will overcome gravity (14.65psi, roughly):D

Main thing with most diverters is their connections and coil need to either be somewhere NOTHING can get to them (most delicate part of the diverter) or else fab a protective cover, whichever is more practical...

You may find that the best way for hoses (if yours are like mine) is to use straight adapters from port (mine are SAE) to hose (mine are JIC) - this makes it easier to put angle adapters on so you can "point" your hoses where they lay better. Several of the diverters' ports are too close together to put 90's directly on the ports, because the 90's will interfere with each other when you try to tighten them... Steve
