Thanks for showing off your stack. Now, how many ways could you bolt the manifold to the lift cover?

It's just the factory valve that bolts to the hyd top cover.

Hey, I'm having the hyd hardline from the pump to the right footrest blowing out at either end after I installed an hyd remote assy. I am assuming that somehow the hyd pressure is deadheading and pushing the line out of the rubber compression fittings. Maybe the spool is stuck? I have qorked the...
