I have a factory installed 3rd function valve on my loader. It was delivered with the hydraulic lines just capped at the loader end. I need to adapt it to fit the standard skid steer flat faced connectors. I was wondering if someone who has done this already can point me in the right direction to purchase parts. Or at least tell me what size/style fittings I need. I have pics but haven't uploaded them yet.

I'm also wondering which fitting is installed on the top/bottom in the standard skid steer configuration.

It appears the tractor side is 1/2 - 14 nptf. Found a connector on Ebay that looks like it will work.

Hello medicshawn. I figured I would post this here for you rather than answer your PM just in case someone else some time is looking for the same info. You have a Skis Steer Flat faced style coupler. I know the one on your tractor is 1/2 NPT the same as mine is.

You'll be needing one male plug fitting to mate with the one on the tractor and also one female as well. I just scanned a catalog page for you and it would be items "C"and "D" on the page. Just pick up one of the item "C" and one of the "D"put some tape on the threaded portion of the hose and screw them on and your off to the races.

I used the regular type on mine and purchased the plastic caps that snaps over them when there not in use. Hope this helps!

Got everything installed and working today. Unfortunately I was so busy taking Pics of the grapple I forgot to take any of the valve.
