Anyone ever add an extra circuit to a JD X series? Is it an easy process? I have never worked with hydraulics other than as an operator of the tractor.

I own an X585

Thanks

What are you trying to accomplish? Do you need this extra
set at the front or rear of the tractor?

Dutch,

Could be either. Thought process is as follows:

Add cylinder to Johnny Bucket on front to add a grapple. OR add a cylinder to the carry all on the 3 pt to turn the box I mounted on the carry all into a dumping box.

Any thought?

And yes, I probably should have bought the 2210 /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

thanks

JJE64,

Maybe consider an electric linear actuator? Six inch stroke with 600 lbsf is not bad at all.

See here:

(towards the bottom of the page).


Also, there is a thread somewhere here on a 3rd party solenoid valve assembly that redirects the flow to a second port with a flick of a switch. The first port remains charged while the second port will accept flow. (Sort of like your third cylinder setup.)

awlchu,

Yes I thought of a linear actuator also. That might be the process. But, if I add the hydraulic circuit, it gives me options for other "attachments". I realize this is not a big 'tractor", but I want to have as much fun that I can (of course while staying safe).

I found the thread on the diverter, and that looks like a good option.

Thanks
