Hello, New here... I want to make some sort of Y or T connection with a ball valve or switch so I do not need to disconnect and switch the two yellow lines to go from bucket loader tilt to mower deck lift...Any ideas?

Do you not have a valve for the mower lift?
If not and you want to shift the flow, you will need a gate valve in each circuit.

No there is not a valve. I have to disconnect the loaders tilt line and connect the mowers lift line each time. Thanks...

I think I would install a diverter valve, and switch between curl and mower lift by flipping an Off/On switch. Default OFF you can control the bucket curl . Flip the switch on, and you have mower control using the joystick.
Here is the valve .
Surplus Center - 12 VDC 13.2 GPM SAE 8 DOUBLE SELECTOR VALVE
Stackable Solenoid Operated Circuit Selector Valve | Type SAE 8 SELECTOR VALVE SOL OPT SAE 8 220-934

I am thinking instead of two gate valves (I would use ball valves) there must be a three way valve you could use. One position flow to loader, other position flow to mower lift.

How are you going to work the DA cyl using one input for each circuit.
It can be done, but other connections are required.

JJ is on the right road.. bite the bullet and install the diverter valve.. by the time you buy 4 high pressure ball valves or 2 three way valves, add the cost of the plumbing them in, it will cost more. the next thing is you will need to have access to all the valves and have to make sure that the proper ones are opened and closed (can see a big mess of broken pieces and oil all over if some one uses the machine and does not know how to operate them) with the diverter you can mount it any were and keep it looking clean..
