Guys, here is the backhoe installed. Works great! Thanks for all of the help.

Got it. I don't see any reason that I would use the lift while operating the backhoe. Once the stabilizers are down, the tractor won't move until I raise them back up.

Here are pictures of the reservoir/3 point lift arms. There is a solenoid that runs a leveler on the right hand side of the 3 point. I included a picture of the left side where the line goes from the loader valve to the reservoir.

Wrangler, the entire number is K16A1SKZ1.

3 point was working even when I had everything plumbed wrong. It looks like part of the reservoir. I'll send pictures when I get home.

Sweet! And even if I spend $50 twice to get this baby going, it's still very cheap education!

I don't see anything like p40. The number on the tag starts with a k. Not finding any other markings.

Well, it's starting to make sense! I hooked it all up the "sort of" way and ran it at an idle long enough to make sure all of the functions work properly. I have it unhooked now so I won't be tempted to actually dig with it. Is there any special power beyond valve I need, or is it just...

Harry, you are absolutely right; I run mainly on enthusiasm and ignorance. I really appreciate all the coaching. Can't send pics now because I'm at work, but I'll get some this evening. It makes sense now that the left side would be the pressure side. In theory, would I be able to hook the right...

Here's the valve body. Power comes in on the right. Which is the power beyond port?

I did tee into the pressure line. What other method is available? I'm just a carpenter who dabbles in machines.

I am putting a backhoe attachment on my tractor. The backhoe had tyranny fluid in it, so I cycled it out of the cylinders and then refilled them ss best I could. Blew out the lines. Now, when I hook the hydraulics up to the backhoe, not even the front end loader will work. Unhook the power line...

I have an old mt2201d that I am using pretty hard. I need to have a front wheel spindle either replaced or repaired. I remember that Valley Power would've been able to fix it, but he passed away in January. Is there anyone else who specializes in gray market tractors?
