Actually, not in another thread so much as because of several other threads:
There was a question in another thread about reversing the tiller to spit out stuck rocks. That got me just whimsically looking at reversing valves.
While looking at valves I got to thinking a 2 spool would be nice to split up my rear hydraulics. I did put a ball valve in line so I didn't have to unhook the BH lines (that thread maybe 4 months ago), but still a bit inconvienient.
Looking slightly more seriously at valves, I stumbled across the triple pump and remembered the steering/lift thread. This feature/flaw doesn't annoy me too much, but slightly. Also, by coincidence, a little while ago the relief valve for the PTO pump was sticking, I didn't particualarly like the set-up but left it in the back of my head until now - the greater significance of that being I was afraid my pump was going out when the relief stuck and wished I had a spare. Also by coincidence, every so often I'd notice high-flow skid-steer attachments go relatively reasonable and in the back of my mind wished the PT had a high flow pump.
No one thing would have really prompted me to do it, but all the little things just seemed to add up. Though I'm not sure if they add up to $600. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
