I make a rear remote kit for the 20 series tractors, and the TC45 looks similar. But you can still get the full kit from NH for adding a second valve to your tractor. PN 84171957.

You can tie in as many open center valves as you want, provided they are all in series. So the oil flows out of the adapter block and must flow back into it in one circuit. I need to machine some more of them so it may be a few weeks, but I'll let you know.

Interesting...that makes sense, I've just never seen it before. The power beyond block I make for the draft control models should fit between the priority valve and relief valve.

I've never seen that middle block in your first three pics. Guessing it's SML28859, see picture from CNH parts catalog. Where do the two steel lines coming out from it run to? The second set of 3 pics you attached are from the 1710 parts tractor? You may or may not need to use that adapter...

Can you post a picture of the block you’re talking about? I may have a 1700 w/draft control adapter block on the shelf from a batch I machined. I’ll check.

Yep, still make them. I just responded to your PM. Thanks, Ted

Yes, but you have to make sure that the valve on the splitter is open center. You also have to loop the adapter plate outlet to the inlet when the splitter is removed from the tractor or it will block the hydraulic flow to the rest of the tractor. The picture below is an installation diagram...

It mounts to the area below the seat/above the rear axle.

Sorry, I think I was wrong on my initial response. I think you actually need a power beyond adapter plate. There is one on eBay that fits the 20 series tractors. New Tractor Hydraulic Adapter Plate made to fit Ford 1320 1520 1720 1920 2120 | eBay

IDIdiesel, that looks like a power beyond setup, not rear remote. You should be fine to run a log splitter assuming that there is a valve directly on the splitter. I’m not super familiar with the 2120s though so maybe other members have a similar setup and can explain how to get hydraulic flow...

Yep, go ahead and send me a PM. I don't think you actually need the remote valve kit, just the power beyond adapter. I have a few of those machined and ready to go as well. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/ford-1710-and-others-hydraulic-power-beyond-adapter-plate.424261/

I sent you an email.

It's easiest to just send me a PM and we can work out the details. Hoping to get a website going at some point.

Since I don't have a 1720 to put my own kit on, I don't have any pics of the kit with the new levers. I've sold a couple kits in the last few weeks, so hoping I can get a picture from one installed soon.

Actually, maybe I'm not right. Are you able to use both the loader and the 3pt at the same time, or do you have to turn the screw on the block like the manual hints at? Any 1720 owners know the answer?
