Case 970 adding loader

[farm boy00]

Looking for opinions on adding loader and backhoe hydraulics
Case 970 power shift.

Installing a loader and a 3pt backhoe.
Planning on tapping into the pressure line after the pto valve before the 3pt/outlets.
Feed pressure into the loader valve then power beyond back to a quick connect for the backhoe with a power beyond back to the 3pt.

But haven't torn into it fully. Have not seen a great location to run a drain back to the rear end.

Mainly will be used as an oversized loader tractor 75% of the time. Backhoe is just an occasional use so I dont have to rent one when needed. Not worried about it being a 3pt because it won't be used maybe 3-5 times a year after a few projects this spring

I did that very power beyond mod to a 1070 years ago for a loader. There wasn't a
good place for the return on that tractor either. I drilled and tapped a hole in the PTO housing. I tried the fill port first but that part of the housing couldn't take the
return flow fast enough. I don't recall how similar a 970 and 1070 are in the rear end. I did consider using a drain port but was worried it could get knocked off and that would end badly.
