MX5100 2nd set of rear remotes ?

[Code54]

Does anyone know the price or part numbers for a 2ND set of rear remotes for the MX5100. I asked 3 dealers and have 3 totally different answers. Also the price is over $400 different. Seeing the first set is there it seems the 2nd should be a lot cheaper....
Thanks

Do you have to have hyd valves exactly like those on your tractor.

Could you use any 2 or 3 spool open center valve.

What do you plan to use the valve for?

Could you use something like this valve .

Check with one of the dealers that are willing to sell over the Internet like Barlows. I would think that they would be able to help you out.

Plus, there should be a 2-3 different types available, so there will be a few $$ difference there also. Be sure to ask about the different types so that you get what will work best for you.

Any thoughts of a hydraulic side link also? They sure work nice when it comes to grading.

Thank you J J - I really am thinking I am going to stay with the factory stuff as I REALLY like how it goes together. I do thank you for mentioning the other options however.
The second set will be used to "power" my hydro top link. The first set will be hooked to my front lines full time for the grapple.
I would like to get my parts locally because they are the ones that help me when I need it and want to support him. I didn't get the tractor from him because he didn't have one in stock and that made the prices too far apart but figure I can give him all my other business as he is a good guy!
I have to admit I never thought I would use one set much but now that I have it I don't know how I made it without rear hydro in the past! It is GREAT!!!!

They are about 600 a set not looking them up. You can go to the Kubota site to price them.

Second set should be about $500-$600. I just installed sets 1&2 myself on my mx. I made a thread showing them

I prefer my grapple hooked to the dump function on the front end loader with a selector valve controlled by a switch on loader handle. To me it is much better than having to take hand off loader handle to move aux control handle. When handle is pushed to curl pushing button button switches flow to clamp. When handle is pushed to dump and button pushed the grapple opens. It makes for quicker and better controlled action. I'm taking the grapple off my L3300 and putting on my M5700 right now. I will use the rear remote for my top link and selector valve for grapple. I wouldn't want my grapple on rear remote. You can get a selector valve from burden surplus pretty cheap. One I bought will control three sets of circuits and was built for a cat skid steer. So quality is very good.
