Loader Grapple question

Added this to my 4025, just add hoses. Much cheaper than the WR Long kit, and has the Scorpion style handle.

I did a diverter, and made my own "hurst" shifter.

Does that setup stop up/down/curl action while closing the grapple?

It does. That's the difference between a diverter and a true 3rd function. For the price, I'm more than happy with it.

You could have plumbed off the PB port and got true 3rd function. Cost would have been roughly the same. I just bought a kit vs purchasing the valve and making my own handle.

Maybe so. Still plenty OK with this setup.
