I am in the process of installing a snow blade on the front of my Kubota L3000. It will be attached under the front and I will be removing the bucket. It is a blade off of a pickup. What I want to do is to switch/reroute the hydraulics from the bucket lines so I can use the joystick to raise and lower the blade and to turn it left and right. What I am looking for is a valve to shift the hydraulics from the bucket lines to the plow blade lines. It will need to switch 4 lines. I would like to do this with one valve/handle. Are they out there? I've seen them for 2 lines but not 4.

If you are removing the FEL, I don't understand why you would need 4 lines. The FEL lift line lifts the blade and the curl lines angle it.....
If you are only removing the bucket, then you need a 3rd valve to control the angle, or use the curl valve by fixing the curl in one spot with clamps of some type.(plow lift chain back to FEL structure) I like the 3rd valve system
