JD 4440, JD 5303, JD 3038e, JD 250 skidsteer, Kubota L35, ASV 70, Bobcat 743
Just finished it up. I build 2 altogether, one for the skidsteer and one for my little tractor. Ended up with around 40 hours in the first one and about 10 in the second.

I have decide to try my luck at making a 4 n 1 bucket for the 3038. I have one to model.

Mind if I ask where you connected your hydraulics to? I have the 3038 and would love to have the same type of setup on my bucket

I have a WR Long third function valve plumbed in my hydraulic curcuit.

Very nice looking.

Did you hook it up or the dealer? Where about do you have it plumbed in at? Can you run it to the back as well? I'm sure I'll have more questions, so please forgive me. Thanks

Nice build for sure. I am sure you will get attacked on your after market hydraulic plumbing. JD wants about 800.00 for 2 pair- rear remotes on 32 & 38's.
OT, but I see something on your loader arms directly at the horizonal tube that has the hydraulic lines strapped to. It looks to be exactly the same thing as is on my 3032e, the sleave of the hydraulic T where attachment/grease fitting hits the plate steel when curly bucket to max up exactly where the grease spot is on your loader. Is this normal..?for that part to smack the loader as a bucket stop../ I have ment to call my dealer & ***** about this, but I am not a seasoned tractor guy & thought it to be normal. But the more I think on it, it does not seem good for this to happen..?

Sure would be nice to get more details on your remotes & the grapple build in general.
