Case 380B, John Deere X475
Good morning everyone, I hope I'm not asking a question. Thats already been answered- I looked around a bit but didnt find anything.

I have a 1990 JI Case 380B, same as a Case IH 485, with a factory loader. I want to be able to remove the loader assembly, I need to add quick couplers to the hydro supply & return lines. Question is, after disconnecting the lines, do I have to loop the supply to the return to complete the system? The loader valve assy will stay with the loader, so it'll be only 2 main lines to disconnect. I called a couple Case dealers but they were no help. Is there a way for me to figured this out? Trial & error? Maybe figure out if the loader valve is open center or not? Thanks in advance everyone
