Additional Hydraulic ports

[JimC]

Has anyone added a additional hydraulic port to a BX2200.
Looke like it would not be too difficult a project.
Sure would be nice to be able to add things like a log splitter etc to the machine.

Jim, Search the files. I read it somewhere on here.
I'll try to find it. The guy used BX22 parts.

Keep us posted if you do. I probably will also. I'm going to build a Caddigger BH for my BX. If you need more part numbers and schematics, you can get them from TractorSmart through links like this one:

It only took me about an hour to install all the parts which included fabricating the brackets that the hard lines are fastened.

how hard do you think it would be to add to a L3710? Cost for parts?

MDSteve.

Your L3710 would be a bit more involved and more expensive because you would actually be adding additional Selective Control Valves(SCVs which is better by the way) I think you can add 2 or 3 more valves, but someone who actually has a L3710 could tell you for sure. It's more expensive because of the valves themselves and the extra hard plumbing that goes along with them.
