Does anybody have remotes on their BX?

[BotaBigot]

I just had the valves installed on my bx2350. The plate to which the couplings are attached mounts on the right side of the ROPS and the levers for the come up through the available slot in the right rear fender. I can take a photo and send it to you but I don't know how to attach a photo here.
I have the BX7326 Valve kit which allows me to operate the chute deflector and the chute rotation.

Unfortunately, the BX7326 Valve Kit doesn't fit the TLBs (22, 23, 24). Subframe interference at valve mounting point. Folding ROPs and rotating seat interfere with QD coupler mounting bracket. This is not to say the kit can't be modified to work...don't know...but it's not plug-n-play. There are a lot of us with TLBs that want it to work, but so far no one has done the mods (and told us about it). If I could stop using mine long enough, and lived close enough to a line/hose fabricator...I'd give it a try.

Here's a good thread on the remote install on a BX2350 by actionaj. I have this thread saved for that day, someday, when I get to this project on my BX1860. Even though this kit isn't for the TLB models, it may help you decide what to do or how to modify the non TLB kit.

Here are pictures of the setup my dealer installed at delivery time on my BX24. Uses the backhoe connections that are normally connected in bypass mode when the backhoe is off.

The entire valve assembly could be removed, but I just leave it in place even when using the backhoe.

I love having the remote top link and tilt cylinder adjustment.

who's kit is it? or did they put it together them selves?
is it hard to put fuel in?

Here is my set-up.

Skippy-

What was your source for the electric valve body? Cost?

I am assuming that is a Kubota kit ... What did it cost? I like the way it mounts in the open slot

Tommu56: I think it's a Gearmore kit. I use a fuel funnel with a 12" end on it, so filling up is no problem.

Actually, my set-up is manual that costs around $280 CAD. You can hock-up with hard lines or flexible lines. The OEM kit that is a two ports valve, mine is a three ports valve.
In my case, I plan it to simple as possible. So I put quick connects directly on the valve and turn around the controls facing the cab.
I imagine that an electric set-up will reach $400 to $500 CAD.

Thanks Skippy - Happy New Year

Alan that sounds great also. It would seem that you accomplished this on a BX23, where the hydraulic plumbing for the BH is a bit different from that of the BX24. Would it be possible for you to post details on which ports on the tractor were connected to which ports on the remote valve?

The output line on your tractor is the one with the small hose to quick connect.This goes to the in side of your valve you install the other is the return.
