    Yep, still make them. I just responded to your PM. Thanks, Ted

    Yes, but you have to make sure that the valve on the splitter is open center. You also have to loop the adapter plate outlet to the inlet when the splitter is removed from the tractor or it will block the hydraulic flow to the rest of the tractor. The picture below is an installation diagram...

    It mounts to the area below the seat/above the rear axle.

    Sorry, I think I was wrong on my initial response. I think you actually need a power beyond adapter plate. There is one on eBay that fits the 20 series tractors. New Tractor Hydraulic Adapter Plate made to fit Ford 1320 1520 1720 1920 2120 | eBay

    IDIdiesel, that looks like a power beyond setup, not rear remote. You should be fine to run a log splitter assuming that there is a valve directly on the splitter. I’m not super familiar with the 2120s though so maybe other members have a similar setup and can explain how to get hydraulic flow...

    Yep, go ahead and send me a PM. I don't think you actually need the remote valve kit, just the power beyond adapter. I have a few of those machined and ready to go as well. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/ford-1710-and-others-hydraulic-power-beyond-adapter-plate.424261/

    It's easiest to just send me a PM and we can work out the details. Hoping to get a website going at some point.

    Since I don't have a 1720 to put my own kit on, I don't have any pics of the kit with the new levers. I've sold a couple kits in the last few weeks, so hoping I can get a picture from one installed soon.

    Actually, maybe I'm not right. Are you able to use both the loader and the 3pt at the same time, or do you have to turn the screw on the block like the manual hints at? Any 1720 owners know the answer?

    This block? That's the diverter/relief block. If your loader is plumbed into that then the remote kit would work fine. The remote kit uses the hydraulic flow between that block and the 3pt system.

    Sorry for the delay. Yep, ready to order. But keep in mind that the handles may need to go through a revision before getting them to fit perfectly. Send me a PM if interested.

    The kit with a single valve, adapters, orings, and handle is $500. The dual valve kit is $650. The kit isn't too hard to install, see the pic below. The 4 orings closest to the tractor are 20.4mm OD x 2.4mm wide, a standard -114 oring is close and will work.

    I finally got a batch of adapters machined and the prototype 1720 handle set completed. I think the handles turned out nicely, just a matter of whether they fit correctly or not.

    UPDATE: I've been working through a pretty large backlog on both CNC machines, and have a bunch of urgent engineering consulting/design to get done. But, I've made progress on the adapters and handles. I made a few updates to the adapter to make the oring installation easier, and also have a...
