I have a JD 4052R on order with a 440R front end loader. Also getting 3rd function SCV for my grapple. The dealer has informed me delivery will be delayed several weeks unless I go with single point connection device for additional $125. I don't mind paying the extra money - it is insignificant relative to the cost of the tractor. I did some quick research and believe this approach is common on larger loaders. Are there any downsides to this option? I will have two rear remotes (4th and 5th SCVs so I won't need to access any of the loader valves for rear implements.

For $125 DO IT!!! Try pricing it in parts, I spent over $500 each, to convert two machines. And was by shopping ebay for deals.

Do all six hoses connect using the single lever?

Yes! I have both my tractors equipped with one, both are 3 function (6 hoses), set up for a grapple. The 245 loader on the 2030 has another hose from the relief valve return to sump, that is a separate quick coupler, I have to remember to couple/uncouple. Super easy to couple or uncouple.

The only way I would NOT add the single point for $125 is if it's just the loader 1/2 at the boom end for a 3rd function. And does not have the grapple 1/2 included.
