First many thanks to JJ and others for the great help on my JD 2440 hydraulic question. Unfortunately, the tractor sold before I could make an offer.

Now, I'm looking at a John Deere 5210 4WD with a JD 541 loader. My question has to do with adding remotes. The tractor has two existing rear remotes, but both are being used by the loader. I'm trying to get a handle on what my options are for adding additional remotes. I know I want at least one additional set to run a hydraulic auger.

Many thanks in advance for the help!

You said "The tractor has two existing rear remotes, but both are being used by the loader" Are there 4 or 2 couplers, it takes 2 to make 1 system. 1 from pump and the other is return. What ever is back there I would get the loader hooked up to be 1st from the pump, then you would have your rear remotes free. I don't know where you hyd hookup for the loader is on the JD, but there should be one some where. Maybe you can down load the parts manual and see if it's in there. Someone with a 5210 well pop in I'm sure.

I don't think JD offered a Mid valve on the 5210, so the loader will use both rear remotes. One for boom up/dpwn the other for bucket dump/curl.

I know there is a field install kit for a third valve, but can't remember the parts number. Might start with LVB?

Yeah, four ports in the rear, all used. Two for the loader lift, two for the bucket tilt.

Sorry for my ignorance: LVB?

You might want to go out to JDparts.com for the 5210 and look at the various SCVs. You can have up to 5 sets of SCV. Most likely you will just need the third LV100117 and the lever for the third SCV. There maybe a kit that has both the SCV and lever. The lever would be installed to the right of the lever that raises and lowers the PTO. Most likely you will want the float spool.

You can also plumb off were the power beyond goes and install more SCVs. If you do not have enough you also do something with a diverter.

Not a great picture, but here is how the third would look.

Here is some links you may want to look at.

A lot of John Deere field install SCVs start with the LVB in the kit/bundle number. Just search "John Deere SCV" on ebay.Some start with LV. LV100117 may be the one one you need.
