Now a L4060 had B2650
Am thinking of adding a front function on my tractor i have a 7 foot plow that can be angle , so id need function in the front . I look in to it whit the dealer it cost close to 1500.00$ that a bit more then id like to pay so am going to use one of my back remote i have 3 of them .Now is 3/8 hose and fitting a good size .Maybe down the line am going to get a grapple and a tree puller.

I ran 3/8"from my rear remotes to the front for my blade or grapple they both will move quite rapidly.

Now just waiting for my L4060 to measure for my back and front hose .Saw a you tub clip looks pretty simple and way cheaper

So I have a similar setup however I am having an issue where I am blowing the O Ring on the rear remotes. I hit a chuck of ice and I'm guessing the pressure of the hit blew the ORing.

How can I add a something to relieve the pressure instead of blowing the O ring

Cross over relief valve. It will dump excess pressure on one side hydraulic into the opposite side thus avoiding pressure spikes.

Won't hurt could save a valve

I would also highly recommend a crossover relief valve. I'm generally very conservative while plowing, but while pushing back piles of snow this past winter I hit the relief valve several times.

For $10 more I'd go with the 30 gpm even if your tractor is not capable of the 30 gpm an impact or severe push on one corner of the blade could generate quite a spike. Same fittings size and a more realist pressure setting range.
