Thanks Steve. Looks a little different than I had thought they would. Not much different really than the way I have my hoses running back from the main valve block.
I can use them for the BH or another hydro unit as well. I like the stability yours provides better though. John

Gerard,
I installed myself, it took about three hours to do. Had to remove seat, seat platform, tank and support bracket to get tubing out through the center part of that blue bracket. Once the tubes were installed it was pretty straight forward. Everything fit just as it was suppose to. There is a detent in both directions so that you can run the backhoe with the remotes. Got some ideas from Kiotijohn and Jon Depratt on getting the hoses the right way each time.

Have you been running your backhoe from your rear remote? I have on mine and I am getting a power steering type whine from time to time. I just turn the remote off and back on it goes away. The dealer hasn't been able to reproduce this noise or noticed anything wrong. I don't want to have anything break or be wrong with it but I know this isn't something that is supposed to be happening. I was curious after very very hard with your backhoe does this ever happen to you? Assuming you have the rear remote hooked to the BH.

Can you post some photos of your set-up? G )</font> Gerard, I think I can tell you all you need to know about it, and in this picture, you can see the hoses hanging on the toplink hook on the back of the tractor. The hoses are simply hooked into the main valve body, and run back through the cavity under the 3pt hitch lift right arm. Not the most ideal way to do it, and they are hoses, not metal tubes, but it works fine for my backhoe use, and I can still use them for other hydro implements if I have a controller. If it were hooked up the original way, most of the hoses would be on the BH, and run to some quick connects at the main valve body. This way, the hoses on the BH are shorter, and I have hydro that remains on the tractor when the BH is off. I hope this explains it well enough, if you need better pictures, I can get some in the next few days. John hydro hoses

My dealer had the great sense to buy the equipment and learn how to make the hoses himself. Anyone near Jacksonville, FL needing hoses can get a good deal from www.bigtractorsupply.com . He may even be willing to ship, but I'm not sure. John
