JD Diverter Kit or 3rd SCV

[suburbanfarmer]

So during my travels on the interweb came across these 2 options for my 2720

John Deere LoaderMower Mechanical Diverter Valve Kit - LVB25823

and then the usual
John Deere Third SCV Kit Without Detent - BLV1731
https://www.greenpartstore.com/asse..._deere_blv10731_installation_instructions.pdf

Doesnt each option just give me an extra outlet that I can use for the rear hydraulic toplink. Of course price difference is the reasoning in asking :laughing:

Keeping in mind that I dont have a hydraulic mower lift kit to begin with
Thoughts ??

I have one rear remote, currently only used for a snow blower chute rotation...but I'm considering this:
Hydraulic Multiplier Kit, 3 Circuit Selector Valve Including Couplers and Switch Box Control

Here's a video...this is what got me interested

For the top link, you'd want the 3rd SCV option, not the mechanical diverter.

What if I plumbed up a grapple to the diverter?

Maybe get this valve set? Gets you some valves to control several different functions without having to connect-disconnect all the time. :thumbsup:

An electric valve can be included with this and the controls would be on the loader joystick.

You don't want a manual diverter for that either! You'd want an electric one, or a true 3rd function.

That is a sweet setup.

That is a sweet hookup. Thats what I would like to get to eventually. I will give them a call to see what the cost is going to be. thanks

Had a nice chat with Brian and he steered me in the right direction and instead of cobbling a secondary set of hydraulics, will be biting the bullet and ordering the kit from Artillian

For a grapple, thats a great call.

Agreed, I was trying to be frugal and use the same for the occasional rear hydraulic needs by just running extension lines ..:laughing:
