Mahindra 3016 adding hydraulics

[MtnViewRanch]

I want to add 2 rear remotes to my 3016. The tractor has a loader on it. Does anyone know where I need to tap into the hydraulics on the tractor? I looked in the loader manual and the power beyond port on the loader valve hooks into the power beyond port on the tractor. Is there another power beyond port on the tractor to hook into? I am going to get the valve from Surplus Center. I checked with the dealer and they want $600 just for one remote.

Depending on what you are going to use the valve for, don't just buy the cheapest valve that there is. You may want float or detents and that adds to the cost.

My loader valve has in, out, and power beyond ports. The hyd block on the tractor has pressure, tank, and power beyond. What I am thinking is run power beyond from loader valve to inlet on new valve, power beyond from new valve to power beyond port on hyd block. Then I was thinking tee the outlet on new valve to outlet on loader valve, which runs to the tank port on hyd block. I may not have explained it correctly earlier, Galen says the tee idea will not work, but you say you can tee on return to tank hoses. When I said outlet on the previous post I was talking about the return to tank. Do you guys think what I am thinking will work or not? I appreciate the help guys.

You can T the return line.

Thanks to all for the help. Now I just need to order some parts and get busy.

I am about to tackle this project myself. Any chance I can get you (maybmahindra) to snap a few pictures and post them?
