So I've wanted to do this for a while, add a pressure gauge to the outlet side of my hydraulic system to monitor system pressure & see if I am work to the full recommended pressure. I don't want to tap in somewhere that only reads pressure when your doing a certain thing. I want to tap in at point where no matter what I put for a hyraulic load on the tractor, I am reading that pressure. So I guess it would be th eoutlet side of the pump. If there is a place on the loader vlave that I could tee in to plumb somthing in perminently that would be great. Thanks.

T into the pressure line going to the loader valve, but the only time it will read full pressure is when you put the system under load and the relief valve opens. It is a open center system and unless you are using some of the hydraulics, the pump just pumps oil back to the reservoir with not much resistance to build pressure.
