I know it has been on here several times, but I am not too good at searching for it.
I have a BX2200 and would love to have remote hydraulics with the two connectors and a separate controller on the rear of my BX2200. Don't have the $$$ to pay for Kubota parts. Is there any surplus stuff on the market that could be used to build this up? I have MIG welder, milling machine, lathe and other metal fabrication tools so I can build the mounting plates, etc. Just need to know what parts to hunt down at a "reasonable" price.

Doing a search can be a chore at times. /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif I tired remote rear hydraulics first. Came up with several threads but not the one you wanted. /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif After a couple of other tries I tried rear hydraulic. Bingo! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif Found what I believe is the thread you are looking for. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Adding a valve may be the most expensive part.
The 2 threads that deal with Top and Tilt have a lot of information about tractor hydraulics. <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.tractorbynet.com/cgi-bin/compact/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=owning&Number=24170&page=&view=&sb=&o=&fpart=all&vc=1>and Here These are long threads and may take a while to load on a slow connection. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
Good luck with your project. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif
I posted the installation of the BX22 rear hydraulics and if you wish to add the top 'n tilt functionality you can get control valves at extremely low prices from "Surplus Center" call 1-800-488-3407 and have them send you a catalog, they have no web site but they have low prices and a huge selection of everything hydraulic.
