Thanks Ricky. I hope that you enjoy not having to get off the tractor to make those 3pt hitch adjustments. :thumbsup:

Looks real good. A TNT will be my next project!

Do you already have your rear remotes? You're more than half way there if you do. $530 + shipping for a complete "TnT" kit for your John Deere.

I have the power beyond kit but I don't think that will work. Maybe I'm wrong.

You have PB kit for what?

Do you mean you have the PB kit for your JD 3120 FEL valve?

No, let me attach a pic. This pic was intended for the tread on the tire but it has the power beyond kit in the upper left corner.

I bought it off the lot and got about $3,500 off the list as it was a demo but you can see the power beyond kit, never used it though

Do you have a control lever for those QD's? Or are those QD's for something else?

I would get the factory John Deere set up if it were me. More $$$$ , but a lot cleaner installation. It is just about impossible to match the quality of the OEM factory designed remote setup in my opinion. Let me know once you have your remotes and I can get you setup.

Be honest I really have no idea. I have a 5410 that I've always used the hydraulics on that for big projects but I would want to put a TnT on my 3120. I have only used the extra hydro on my 5410 so I really don't know about the power beyond on the 3120. There is one control lever that I guess could operate it but I couldn't tell you that for sure.

And I should add that I will more than likely be looking you up in springtime. Fixing my cabin up right now and have dropped about $7000 and haven't hardly started so right now isn't the best timing for something like this but I will have more use come springtime so I will be sure to look you up:thumbsup:

MartianTractorMan,

Why not trace the QD's back and note any connection all the way backto the pump.

Since there is not a jumper hose across the QD's, they must work off a valve.

A manual for your tractor would be a good thing to have, and a 3000 psi hyd gage.

My guess is that he has 1 set of remotes and just needs to add a 2nd set. If he pulls on the lever and the engine loads, then I would guess that is what the situation is.

That is exactly the case when I pull the valve. Dealer told me the lever was for a MMM but I guess the MMM hydraulics could hook up back there

This is good news, you're half way there.

Brian,

What is the total extended length of a top link for a L5740, and does it have the combo Cat1/Cat 2 ends like the Kubota manual toplink?

Thanks,

RFB

I sell 2 different units for them. Either 20"-30" working length or more commonly purchased is the 22"-34" working length. I use a 2 1/2" dia cylinder to build it and yes it has the cat 1 tractor end and cat 2 implement end.
