I stopped at the Kubota dealership today. Boy, if they are not a pain in the rear. They had no clue what the hookups would be and their explanation is that Kubota used several different manufacturers over the years to supply those QD's. Their best advice was to load up the tractor and take it over to the Tompkins store. LOL Yea, I'm going to haul my tractor 100 miles round trip to get a hose made. They are nuts.

Also, the Kubota solution with a 3 way valve and all the fittings is over $1300! No big surprise there.

So, I finally got home and wiped the grease off the QD fittings on the backhoe and found a number. Looks like one is a Parker fitting, H4-63 and the other one was a different brand, of which I did not recognize but it is the same type of fitting only in a 3/8. I'm just going to order them along with the valve recommendation from kennyd and I'll be in business.

Thanks for the help!

Please let me know how your install of remotes went. I'm wanting to put remots on my L48 and need plumbing diagram and other information.
