Rear Remotes

[MtnViewRanch]

Rockin'G Ranch, if you go with the Kubota OEM remotes be sure to let the dealer know what type of control valve you want. Detent, detent float, detent with auto kick out, spring return to center. Kubota offers several types, might as well get what you want-need.

I think the factory parts will give you a much cleaner install. Maybe the cab GLs are different but on the open station tractors it looks like the spool valves mount near (or onto) the loader valve and the levers have push rods to actuate them. It doesn't look like there's enough room on the right side of the tractor where the slots are to mount the spools with the standard style levers. I could be wrong though. If you do decide to add a set please start a new thread and take lots of pictures.

I do not know what type controls I need for various functions but I do know what functions I want.

1. T-N-T on the rear
2. Possible grapple for the FEL
3. Possible wood splitter on the rear.


Thanks for the help!

1. T-N-T on the rear--detent with float and spring return to center or auto kick out or 2 detent with float
2. Possible grapple for the FEL---------spring return to center
3. Possible wood splitter on the rear.--detent

You can also just use a bungee cord to keep the valve open on a spring return to center valve whenever you were to use a log splitter. You for sure want to have the float position valve to use with the "TnT" side link. It makes certian grading conditions much easier- better.

Rockin' G Ranch ,

The reason that I recommend the do it your self principle is there is a great mark up on parts and labor.

You save money, you learn something, and can be proud of the fine job you did.

This is all assuming that you have the ability to round up all the parts and understand the operation of each and have the tools and time to do the job. If someone does the job for you, you will have learned nothing except to pull the levers.

If you do it your self, you will have taught yourself something and will know how to operate and trouble shoot the system if needed.

Some people just have unlimited money pockets, and can afford to have someone else do it for them.

Just add up the merits of each method and decide for your self.

You can custom make a stack valve set to do the exact job you want.

Sometimes it is easy, and at other times extremely hard.

Basically it is a

What do I want the valve to do?

How many spools do I need?

Where shall I put it?

What are the fittings size and thread type I will need.

How long should I make the hoses?

You will need a hyd gage to set relief pressure.

You should measure twice and order once.
