Adding 2nd rear remote to 6000

[MtnViewRanch]

Slippy, actually when it is all said & done I will have 5 rear remotes. I only need 4, but you just never know. I never thought that I would need more than 2 when I bought the tractor. So I will end up with 3 factory & 2 after market on the side of the fender.

If you think that you might need 3, maybe you should go ahead and do the after market ones. You could get 2 for less than the price of 1 factory one.

Good luck

Will the 20 3rd remote work on the 00?

I don't think so. I think that they are a different style. Take a look at your dealer yourself to make sure. Mine are all, 4 position with detents in all positions. My local dealer never has anything bigger than a 4110, so I can't check it out myself. Sorry that I can't be of more help on this.

We installed a 3rd remote on a 7520 today, and it is very different than the 00 series. Nothing wrong with a 3-spool valve on the fender, so that option may be best. Or if you are MtnView, a 10 spool valve on the fender....

10, 10, come on, I'm not that bad am I? You don't think that 5 will be enough for me? Man I'm not sure if I can remember what valve does what now.

I think you are at your limit. More valves will require an additional tractor

By the way, I took in trade a couple of D2 crawlers today. I seem to think you need one? Also a John Deere D, but I think I will keep it. But I digress...

For those of you installing remotes, just make sure the valves are adequate for the flow, otherwise a lot of unnecessary heat is generated. The 00 series fenders are so strong you could mount about anything on them, plus they are nice a flat. Makes it an easy job.

Too many valves, hoses, and other parts for me. I bought a 6000 because it was simple, no frills or gimics. All this hydraulic stuff makes my head spin. I am fortunate to have a very good mechanic who has fabricated a bracket for my diverter valve from WR Long, and making up the hoses, etc. He is also going to install the 2nd set of remotes for me. For me, I think two will be enough, especially when I got along for years with none, and the last few with one. Keep it simple stupid works for me.

I want another tractor baaad, but I bought a Case 1200 Traction King last month and the wife says [That's it, no more.] So I suppose that I am going to have to wait for awhile to get a cat 1 tractor. 35-40 hp.

Dave I think that you are trying to get your profit from those trade ins quick. One of these days I will finish re-furbishing my Case 310 dozer, so no I don't need a D2. Although that's not to say that I would not like to have one.
