Adding a Third Remote to a TN

[Phred]

Here is the valve stack all back togheter.
Note that the studs use a bolt on top and bottom but a washer only on the bottom.

Here is the output block that the two outlet valves are plug into.
Note the two hollow bolts that hold them in place and direct the flow. A set of o-rings are used. Just standard rubber ones on the side that attaches to the valve and a rubber/metal one on the outside.

Here it is all back togheter with the top link installed.

So now its time to turn to the lever addition inside the cab that will activate the new valve.

First I pulled off the trim that covers the levers.

I then pulled the levers out. You must first disconnect the cables from the bottom. Each "cable" has a ball on the end that fits in a socket on the bottom of the lever. A clip then holds the ball in place.

Here are the two "cables" that operate the three point and draft control. The levers have been removed.

So after you pull the levers out you are left with a hole in the bottom of the cab floor.

The levers were a pain to figure out since the instructions were for the non cab model. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif To make it worse it came with two levers. Thats two levers, two possible lever slots, and two possible orentations........

You guessed it I figured it out once it became obvious that only the last possible combination would work. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Here is the correct lever setup.

Here are the levers back in place.

You can see the final levers installed in this image looking through the back cab window.

Final bit is the control cable for the remote.

Here is the cable. The end with the nuts on it goes toward the vavle.

Here is the cable hooked up to the new lever.
