cost of adding rear remotes and 3rd function

   / cost of adding rear remotes and 3rd function #21  
Low temps (-1 on Sunday) and a few other projects (putting lights in the shop so I can see) have my progress on hold. I was happy with everything forward of the QDs, although the QDs are now going to be relocated to get some better clearance for the TNT hoses.

It works well so far, but is a pain to operate while keeping an eye on the hoses. Haven't done a test hanging a blade on the tilt cyl yet, but haven't seen any indications of leakdown problems yet.

Never mind, I found em. I'm an idiot. Looks good. Joystick might be a little cramped but certainly better than mounting on top of fender!!! Good work. You'll be amazed how much you use this addition!!!

Updated my post with some new notes, it's a little better after fiddling & rotating a couple cylinder fittings, but still needs some work. I'm happy with the function.

5'10" & 200lbs, and the way I have it bent, the lever in detent to float on the tilt doesn't quite touch my back side. I'm happy with the way it fits.

*snip*

Flat face couplers run quite a bit more $$, but are nicer. Personal preference for what you get. Most people do not get them. Just the std AG type QDS are what get used.

Gives you something to compare to though.

Good luck.;)

What are "flat-faced couplers?" Any links and pics to go along with your answer would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

My Hoe

Two things I like bout flat face couplers. They don't drip when uncoupled. They don 't collect dirt in the female end. Can easily wipe off the surface and couple.

I have decided (you all have convinced me) to do this myself. As soon as I get some free time and on a computer instead of my phone I am going to put together an order. I will try to update or start a new thread though I doubt I can do better than some of the previously linked threads.

What is the difference between a DA and SA valve?

4 SPOOL SV VALVE OPEN CENTER W/POWER BEYOND

Looking here to put together a stack valve I have 2 DA cyl spool w/ detented float (thinking TnT here)
one DA cyl spool with detented 3 position float (thinking for holding flow on for 3pt wood splitter)
what about the 4th valve SA or DA ?? what are the differences here. I don't see any SCV as options, but thinking they might be handy.
