Hydraulic pressure tap

[choffman41]

I have a 2301D that has an aftermarket FEL installed. I now want to replace 1 lift arm leveler on the 3 point with a hydraulic cylinder. I'd rather not tee into the supply line to the FEL if I can avoid it. Is there a source at the rear of the tractor that will supply high pressure to run the cylinder?

choffman41,

If you click on the following link and read the discussion from several months ago, I posted some information regarding adding remote hydraulics to a YM2310D using the tap ports on the hydraulic block beneath the seat. The YM2310D is the shuttle shift version of the YM2301D so I would expect that you have the exact same hydraulic setup as mine.

Since this original discussion I added a ROPS bar to my tractor and this provided me a convienient place to add a mount for the quick disconnects. The following are pictures of the remote hydraulic installation on my tractor.

Thanks John, that helps a lot, however, mine has a short hose that seems to connect the I port to the O port rather than having plugs in it. I don't understand what that's about, but I guess I can just pull the hose and use the existing fittings.
