I have a JD950(1984) TW drive, no PS, and no hydraulics other than the rockshaft. I have purchased a Koyker 160 FEL. All controls, and hydraulic lines were included up to quick connect connections on pressure and return lines. How do I connect in to the rockshaft block? Do I need additional hydraulic devices? How do I maintain rockshaft hydraulics, and get oil to the FEL? Help! I am apparently living in a hydraulic information Black Hole around here. Thanks.

Figurte whitch side of the block is pressure, come off of that to the spool pressure side then back to the block. That should work in most applications, not knowing your machine specifically leaves me a little shady.

Thank you for your reply. I have done that without success. I'm wondering if I need a resrictor valve on the return?

My 1978 950 w/ FEL has a block in the high pressure line on the right side of the transmission,
just about above the pedal that locks the differential. I think from the service manual that the
later serial numbers have the same idea. Without FEL or remote hydraulics, I'd think the block would
just be capped off. To add the FEL, you'd need the mate to this block that the hoses to my FEL
are attached to. I know at my dealer they're great about letting me talk to the mechanics and pull
pull out the books to see how things are supposed to be.

Hope this helps, but I'm afraid it may be more confusing.
