I havent been on here in a long time but back in 2016 there was a thread on this subject with pictures - ( option for 3rd remote on NX?)

Here is a snip from it.

a third set of rear remotes can*easily*be added by the dealer now, when they install the first two. It is simply a*second*No. 2 kit, with the third kit stacked either on top or on the bottom. Longer bolts are necessary because of the additional thickness of the stack: 10-1.25 x 170mm, ideally grade 8.8 or better. Fastenal has them:*M1-1.25 x 17mm DIN 96 Class 1.9 Zinc Finish Hex Cap Screw | Fastenal

I heard, but didnt confirm, that Fastenal discontinued the bolt. I bought them back then one day and received them the next online.

The third valve is not available in the U.S. you have to order either a extra number one, or two , valve kit. The only difference when I installed mine was the color of the handle and the length of the mounting bolts. Fastenal was the only place I could find the correct length.

All back together successfully. What a job. I wound up tearing it apart 3 times trying to get a bolt that would fit?! Crazy. But the new valve is in, works great, and no leaks.

This is the correct bolt:

You need 3 of them.

Well, let me say, that bolt works. Is it correct? I really don't know. I'm not sure it's the right hardness, and it's not tapered like the OEM bolts, but you can get it in there if you stack all 3 valves and then put them on the tractor. It's a PITA. Have the dealer do it! But, yes, you can order the 2 "number 2" kits and 3 of these bolts and get it all to work. Because I just did.

This is the post from a few years ago with pictures. Then it required 2 bolts.

I realize this Post is kind of old but my question is this.
Is anyone having any problems with the valve blocks leaking? That is the only question my dealer has with stacking 3 of them

I’ve not had a single leak. The tractors are available across the pond with three remotes just not here in the U.S.

+1 on this. In 2016, when my 2014 NX4510 HST cab was in for a software update, I had my dealer add a 3rd remote by ordering a second No. 2 kit and stacking it with the longer bolts from Fastenal. No leaks at all from the remotes in 3-1/2 years.

My 2nd rear function kit came with OEM butter-soft bolts. I was tightening the bolts with a 1/4" drive socket on a 6" long ratchet. I was tightening them in sequence until they were tight enough to switch to my torque wrench. Needless to say, I never got to the torque wrench. Heard a "pop" and the bolt spun free. I wasn't laying into the ratchet at all; just using my wrist and forearm. Took the whole stack off to find the one stud broken off in the tractor, and the other two had severely stretched threads. The sections of valve block were not even fully sandwiched together when this happened. No way it wouldn't have leaked if I had stopped wrenching sooner. Took out the garbage bolts, and started hunting for new bolts locally. Finally found them at Menard's in their little hardware trays in the bolt aisle. They only had 3 left in the bin, so I got lucky. These bolts torqued down fully like any other M8 bolt should. I took one of the junk OEM bolts to work to show my maintenance crew. They couldn't believe the damage to the bolt from a 1/4 drive short ratchet. Believe me, whatever grade bolt you got from HD is likely much higher quality than the ones that came in my Kioti kit!
