cost of adding rear remotes and 3rd function

[npalen]

Yeah, memory serving, I think Brian is pretty close. I went for Kubota stuff on both. Was after a neat and organized install and lever setup.

I'm having some issues with air getting into my TnT cylinders. Haven't figured that problem out yet. I'll post a thread if/when I resolve that issue.

I use my 3rd function on the front a LOT.

The only time I use all 3 rear remotes is when carrying my Box Blade that has hydraulic scarifiers.

I was having the air problem in particular with the top link cylinder on the TNT. Brian (MountainViewRanch) at Fit Rite Hydraulics recommended and sent restrictor fittings which solved the problem. The air problem was caused by the load on the top link cylinder was outrunning the pump capacity. The restrictors slow the cylinder down to let the pump keep up.
The restrictors were 1/32" (.032) diameter orifice which I drilled out to .036" to let the 2" bore x 1 1/4" rod cylinder move a bit faster. It is still a little slow and probably need to drill out a couple more thousandths. Doesn't take much to make a difference in speed. Going from .032" to .038", for example, is a 40% increase in orifice area. Don't want to start over running the pump again.

How difficult was it to add the 3rd rear remote?

Very easy to stack the valve. A bit more time consuming to take the console apart and add the lever assembly. Maybe 4 hours with 2 of them spent reading the instructions.
