Hi Fred, i found a diagrahm , it spells out everything clearly, with pics, and all parts, even length of hoses needed. i finally realized its pretty simple, Put i QC fitting on the manifold, install a rubber hose on the power beyond at the loader valve and unplug it from the manifold when i wanna plug in the pressure hose that goes to the backhoe. My backhoe attachment will be here the end of next wk, ill see what hoses and fittings are on it, the go get the rest and start my project, id like to Thank you, RickB , and agjones for the help. ill let you know how it goes when everything is done. Now my next quest, Finding rear rims, the dealer told me they cant get them, id have to try after market, that hasn't happened either. theres a tractor junk yard in PA, im gonna see if i can find them and see if they have any, mine are loaded, and im afraid starting to rot from the inside out, Anyway, Thanks Gregg

I used to work @ Pine Plains Tractor and Equipment. They have those rims custom built and usually in stock.

Instead of buying a pump and all that work to convert to self contained, why not run a 1-3 spool remote valve like I set up on my 1620? Make sure one of the spools has a detent and use that to spool to power the backhoe when you engage the detent. Done with backhoe, put lever back to center. Seems like the easiest solution to me.

Here's my install thread https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums...76-adding-rear-remotes-1620-a.html?highlight=
