Massey Ferguson 1526
Hey guys. I have a 3rd function kit installed on my Massey 1526. I want to add a rear remote to control the top link. Is it possible to just run lines to the rear and have ports like that? And then connect the top link into that? I’m assuming the diverter button on the joystick would then control the top link but I’m not familiar with hydraulics. I’m looking to avoid the $2500 kit and install fee from the dealer on dedicated rear remotes. I’ve attached a few pictures of the set up.
Thanks

I used the 3rd function valve to add a 4th rear remote on my Kubota L6060. I bought the proper connectors, ran hose from the 3rd function valve to the rear and added a 4th set of ports to the stack.

I haven't routed the hoses permanently yet since I only need the 4th rear remote when using my flail mower.

That’s perfect. Thank you. That’s what I was hoping for. That’ll be a heck of a lot cheaper for what I need. I’m sure I’ll add a full stack later on but right now a single set just for the top link I think will work fine.
