Kubota L185 Loader Hydraulic Connection

[MikeyG]

I have mounted a Koyker 110 Loader on this tractor but cannot get the hydraulic supply correct. I was told there is a "redirecting valvebody" made that bolts on to the hydraulic"block" under the front of the drivers seat. Does anyone know of this or know how to redirect the flow past the internal 3 point lift bypass valving or shutoff fluid flow to 3 point while I use the loader on an L185 2wd?

Thanks

Does your hydraulic for your 3ph look like this? This is out of my book for a L245 DT and will take a pic of my tractor setup when I get home ( which is a factory loader valve setup.)

The controls on your unit are similar but not the same. The L185 has a metal discharge line coming off the pump to a "block" mounted on the front (under drivers seat) of the 3 pt housing. The "block" is a feed through with a removable cover. This cover appears to be designed so it can be replaced with a redirecting device for an additional hydraulic attachment.

I'm quite sure a machinist can make a device to replace this one or tap into the existing cover. I am hoping for a less expensive method.

Thanks for your interest. I would be interested in seeing your setup.

I have 3 Kubotas, love them all, this older unit is my toy.

Thanks Kuby I believe you have solved my problem. I will let you know as soon as I get a chance to make the cover for my valve body.

Thanks a lot!

Hey, that is identical to mine.

Part number 53? Do I need to replace this or just attach a line to the front where the port is? If I need to replace it, do you know a part number?

Thanks for the help.

pabickwermert did you ever try to hook up to the port or did you just make a plate for yours too?
