adding rear hydraulics

dvan1966 · Mar 10, 2008

I have a Kubota B6200D with a FEL. Rear hydraulics was an option but dealer says kit is no longer available. Can I just tee off of the front ports that are for the loader and run them through valves and to the rear? I want to add power angle to my rear blade and maybe a hyd. top link.

Hello - and welcome to TBN!
There's lots of after market valves out there. I'm no expert, but if you'll do a search for "power beyond" you should find lots of ideas about hydraulic access. Good luck!

I'm not a hydraulics expert but.....
Hydraulic circuits must be in series. ie one after another. If you use a T as you described the circuits will be in parallel and neither will work since the pressure will by diverted by the other circuit.

Tig is right in that you can't just "T" off.
Do you have any other valves besides your fel loader valve? If not, you need to feed your new valve from the power beyond port on the fel valve. You will probably need to get a power beyond sleeve that fits into that port, if it's plugged off now. Run a hose from there to the power "in" on your new valve. The "exit" of your new valve, or return to sump, can be "Teed" into the return to sump or tank ... same place your fel valve is returning to now (to tank).

There are pictures in the gallery of how my remotes are plumbed if that helps

There are lots of option, you just have to pick the ones that suit your needs and wallet. With a little mechanical know how, you can save tons of money. drop me a PM if u have any ?
