Mahindra 2516 hydro toplink question.

[manganos]

I'm thinking about adding a hydro toplink and I do not have a rear remote at this time. Anyone use one on their Mahindra and how hard it is to install. I don't want to run a line from the loader...I want to tap into the hydro from the rear. I'm thinking once I get the rear remote I'll find more uses as time goes on.

I can't help you out with what is needed to get your valve plumbed up as you want,(sorry) but I would suggest that when you do get around to it, install at least 2 valves if not 3. You never have enough remotes.

I just finished adding a 2 spool valve, top link cyl and another cyl in place of the lifting arm turnbuckle on a 2615. Works fine. I can help with sources for parts and pictures if you want.

Don't want to hijack the thread but what did it cost you. I would love to add this to my 2615.

Total cost was about $850.00. I could have cut that back some, but remember I installed 2 cylinders, used 90 deg. hose end fittings where it would make connecting to the new control valve easier and look better. I had to get the lower link cylinder ends changed, so I had to pay a welder. However, if you shop carefully, you can get some better pricing, as I have found a few better deals on some of the parts since I bought mine. If you do a lot of work with your tractor, the cost is well worth it. I am glad I did the modifications and added this to my 2615.

I had Ronald at Ranch Hand Supply do my hyd top link and 2 spool for backhoe attachment. I think he was going to make up a kit for the 2615. I am very happy with the setup

Here are a few quick photos of my 2615 HST with FEL. I'll post some better ones soon with more details.
