My B7100HST now has remotes!

TBN was an invaluable resource in this project.

The control valve is currently attached to my ROPS with plywood ( easy prototyping material for me ). I'm going to make sure that I like it where I have it mounted, and then I'll get a permanent metal bracket made. I also need to tidy up the hoses too.

I'll try to take some pictures tomorrow (I know everyone here likes pictures).

I purchased the following cylinder to use as a hydraulic top link:

It works as is for the B7100. I had to put the rod end on the tractor, as the eye isn't far enough away from the cylinder case for clearance. The cylinder end fits in all my implements just fine.

I'm going to also put power angle on my back blade. I was thinking about a swivel-eye cylinder between one side of the blade, and the main center support.

Anyone here add power angle to a back blade?

Now I just need a side-link cylinder.

Regards,
Jay

I used the hydraulic top-link with my carry-all yesterday. This makes it MUCH more useful. I moved a couple small pallets loaded with firewood. Being able to tilt makes the carry-all much much easier to use as a pallet moving, esp. when dealing with uneven ground.

I know everyone will want pictures, I haven't had a chance to take them yet, as I haven't had a chance to tidy up the house, etc.
