Send an email to sales@integrationengineering.net or jimmc@integrationengineering.net and ask for details concerning your specific tractor. Several TBNers have the complete setup. Take a look here TCC thread .
It is a good product and will run you around $1250 for the complete setup. I have one of their tilt cylinders and it works just fine.

Greg,
If I'm not mistaken the DK 55 comes standard with rear hydraulic remote ports.
All you need is the hydraulic top link and tilt cylinders/hoses/fittings.
Your tractor is already plumbed up and ready to plug them in.

Vince, don't you also have to buy a spool/control like a joystick to operate the cylinders? John

The control valves to operate the rear remotes should already be there.
I test drove a DK 55 a while back and saw the controls for the rear remotes, but can't remember exactly how they were set up.
Attached is a picture of my DK 35 rear remote controls.
(The small levers just in front of the position/draft controls operate the rear remotes, and my top/tilt cylinders)

<font color="blue"> Yes there are dual rear remotes with valves . I was hoping to set up that joy stick . Am I dreaming ? </font>
If you already have the valves and linkages in place, you probably won't want to spend the money for additional control valves, which are not cheap when you add the cost of fittings and hoses that would also be needed.
Myself I am not sure of the need for a joystick on a T&T. I am going to sometime soon put a T&T on my tractor, and I don't think I will bother with a joystick. I don't have any experience with a T&T though, so this is just a guess.
Perhaps someone who has a T&T with a joystick control like the TCC has could comment on whether they do adjust both functions at the same time, similar to how we operate a loader, or if it is generally one or the other that is adjusted...
If you already have the remotes on the tracdtor it should be a simple thing to get cylinders hooked up. You could do that first and worry later about whether a joystick control would be helpful...wish I had remotes already installed on my tractor! We need an instant face for ENVY! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You could set up the joystick if you wanted to I quess, but don't see what you would really gain as far as how the top/tilt works.
I never find myself adjusting both valves at the same time, or often enough where a joystick would be any advantage over the factory setup.

While I've tried out the DK35, I wasn't thinking about TnT so I didn't pay any attention to how the rear remotes were done. I suppose you simply operate the top link with one lever and the tilt side with the other? I can see that a joystick wouldn't be needed. John
