Has anyone figured out how to have both the loader and mmm all hooked up all at the same time and by maybe adding a two way valve somewhere?

Yeah, just get rid of the independent lift kit for the MMM and go back to the mechanical lift, then you can control the MMM with the 3PH control and leave the FEL hooked up normally.

I use the mechanical lift on my 2305 also. Note also than when doing this you still CAN use the 3pt hitch for some implements even when you are running the deck. The key is that you adjust the deck and lower it to the stops. You'll have the range from all the way down to when the deck starts to lift (Doesn't start to lift until the top of the 3pt hitch range) to use the 3pt hitch. Takes a little getting used to but you can do it even while using the deck. I mount my Cyclone rake on the 3pt hitch while I have the mower on and this works fine since I keep it in the middle of the 3pt range (Before it starts lifting the deck).
If you aren't running the deck you can use the 3pt hitch for anything you want. Just keep the left/right adjusters set so the lift lever for the deck doesn't 'fall' off the lift arm. (You don't need the spacer rod if you use an implement). It's also better to lock the deck in the up position when doing this.
But JD now is offering (in their printed catalog) a 3rd SCV for the 2320 and 2520, could a 3rd SCV for the 2305 be far behind?
Someone on this site did post a product (can't remember the company) that basically was electric diverter valves and gave you I think 2 additional SCV's. It had a Video Game like handle with buttons that replaced the knob on the Dual SCV control lever.

The rear hydraulic kit for the 2520 & 2320 is not a 3rd SCV. It is just hyraulic lines that run from the mid outlets to the rear. Below is the description form the JD website.
Rear hydraulic outlet kit
Routes hydraulic power from dual mid selective control valves to two hydraulic couplers at the rear of tractor.

Here is the part number listed in the "Compact Tractor Implements and Accessories" hand out # LVB24871 and it states it is a "3rd SCV whether your trying to control your rear hydraulic implement or lift and lower you mid mowers, this can make it happen" Any ideas as to what all comes with this part number and can I adapt it to my 2305?
