Adding hydraulic circuit to L2250

[bjorn773]

I am looking to add another hydraulic circuit to my L2250DT to use primarily with a snow plow on the FEL. Looking at my options, I see a full 3rd function valve, a diverter valve or an additional hydraulic valve in series with the FEL valve. In searching for components, I ran across this adapter plate on Ebay. However, I cannot find a spot on the tractor that looks like it would accept this adapter. Can anyone advise me about where this adapter would go? The parts distributor that sells it cannot answer the question.

I believe I found the answer. There is a hydraulic cover on the top of the rear axle (pictured below). I believe it is the cylinder cover for the 3 point top link. On the left side of the cylinder cover is another cover. The factory side cover appears to connect the ports together. The aftermarket cover replaces the original side cover and adds ports for a rear hydraulic valve. This would work for me, although the hoses would need to be routed to the front for the snow plow. I believe a diverter valve off the loader valve would be more appropriate.
