I routed hydraulic lines from the rear remotes to the front of loader over the top of the differential and up the left side of tractor. I had two 130" and two 48" L x 3/8" Hyd lines made and it fit perfect! There is a lot more room on the left side. I found 15' of hose protector sleeve at TSC for about $15 and sleeved the total length. I used 3/8" couplers in the middle on the loader arm and 1/2" on the two ends.

Just thought I'd show how I did it. :)

That's pretty much exactly what I did except I looped up and over my top link and then ran down the left side. I also sued 1/2" couplers in the middle connection to get all the flow I could to the front in case I ever needed it for an implement. Thinking hydraulic PHD in the back of my mind.

I need to do something similar with my P7010C. I don't really want to drop $1000 for a electro-hydraulic 3rd function kit. I played around on Discount Hydraulic Hose and for about $200-$250 I can build a similar setup like you did. Originally I did not want to tie a remote valve up permanently with this setup, but heck, I have 3 of them.

I did something similar on my Farmall 504 but I had a 3 spool valve for the loader... And no cab... I need to get this done soon so I can continue to use my grapple.

Slick job on your 3rd circuit. I plan to emulate.

I got most of the fittings at Hydraulics Direct.com. The hoses I had made by the mechanic where I work.

Whoops! I was wrong CT, I DID get my parts at Discount Hydraulic Hose ,including the support clamps, NOT at Hydraulics Direct. Sorry for the confusion. :(

I have shopped with them before. They seem to have everything hydraulic one would ever need!

Wow! I don't know how I missed your thread about running your lines. Must have been tired that day and clicked the all read tab. I have read thread and replies and I think I paid less buying all my supplies at TSC.
One change I made that you may want to do is change one of your hyd. fittings up front to a male. I originally had two female couplers and each line was marked with a different colored zip tie. I had the two male ends on the cylinder hoses but even with colored zip ties I connected the hoses to the wrong ports by accident a couple times. I then changed my fittings to one male and one female so there would be no mix up should a zip tie break off. That way I can't hook up the hoses to the wrong fitting and have the thumb close when I want it to open.

I have my Koyker 220 on my Farmall 504 setup like this. KISS method!
