While on the 34DA, does it have position control on the 3pt hitch?

Thanks 6.
The TC34DA is kinda big already for what I need, the 35DA (my friend just had the 45DA Cab delivered) would just be way overkill. I probably could get by with the 26/29 but don't want to take the chance of going too small.

Priced a 26, forget it, just a few hundred less than the 34.
I have a quote to "fix" my driveway as it needs some serious help. $5k worth of materials, equipment and labor. My good friend just came by today with his brand spanking new TC45DA/Cab and BB to grade the driveway. What a sweet rig. That thing just ate right into the hard pack like it was nothing. After he was done grading it, it became quite apparent that I still need the $5k repair, as the lawn next to the driveway is higher than the driveway so the rains have nowhere to run off but down the driveway. They want to bring in crusher run gravel and then top dress it with stamat. At least once that is done I'll have enough material to be able to keep it graded myself with my new tractor!
I'll be putting a grapple on the front and a BB and a blade on the rear. What kind of extra (remotes?) hydraulics do I need to be able to use the grapple as well as tilt the blade. What exactly is a TnT (Top n' Tilt)?
If I'm building this rig, I'd rather have the dealer put it on right now as a new rig rather than trying to jury rig something later.
thanks for all of the help.

Top and Tilt means a hydraulic cylinder replaces the top link in the 3 pt and tilt means the same for one of the side cylinders. Seems like it's a good idea for moving dirt in the back. You need two rear remotes to do that right.
I think on the TC 45 you can get a third rear remote. They are around $700 each installed a another post. It's good to get all you can.
The grapple can be run from the third one if you run hoses up to the front. A lot of people do that , I did it when I only had one remote.
Or you can install a diverter valve and share the grapple with the bucket curl function. Thats a little nicer. The joystick ends up with a button on it for curl or grapple.
