I am not 100% sure what you are looking for but here is a post that shows you how to add rear hydraulics to your BX2200. POST The BX2200 uses the same mechanics as the BX22. I added this to my BX2200 and works like a champ. Cost is a little over $200.00. If this is what you are looking for and have any questions just let me know and I would be happy to help you out.
Yes, this is what I am looking for! Thank you very much. I have asked my dealer (a Case dealer) about this for 6 months, no answer, I post the question here and get an answer in 5 minutes!!! I bet I don't order the parts there!
Wonderful!!!

Ralph, I also own a BX2200 and was interested in adding rear hydraulics. When the BX22 came out I noticed it had the rear hydraulics (for the backhoe). Futher peeking and poking revealed that I could probably purchase the hydraulic block and associated lines for the BX22 and simply put them on my BX2200.
I ordered the pieces and installed them...wah-lah...I now have rear hydraulics. I also acquired a 4 spool valve, mounted it on the rear, and purchased a couple of hydraulic cylinders and modified them to replace my top-link and tilt-link. I've got the top link plumed and it works like a champ. I'm waiting for some additional fittings to arrive to finish up the connections on the tilt cylinder.
When you complete the task of adding the 4 spool valve can you shoot some pictures and post them. I am interested in doing the same thing but not sure what spool valve to buy and where to mount it.
The local regional rep told me that they are in the process of finalizing a remote hyd kit for all the B units (BX included). They're working with suppliers to have them available this year. However it sounds like it will be a ROPS mounted valve design. When I inquired why they didn't just make the factory valve and remotes for the BX available in the US I was told it was a price point issue and Kubota USA marketing's decision. Go figure. In any event it will probably be a kit using the same components others have built themselves here on TBN. I've been waiting to see what the kit price will be otherwise I'll make my own up as well.
