Has anyone converted the valves on the LW-6 to a better valve. The handles are coming loose when you move the handle to far. It just pops off the end of the spool. The little buton that goes in the end of the spool is worn, but I was looking for a better setup. I was wondering if anyone had changed the handle assembly or the valve bank itself ?

I do remember someone else posting on another site (I believe it was CTOA.net) about changing to Prince valves. I contacted Prince via their web site and they were willing to work with me to do the same but I never followed through.
There is a posting on the same web site from a company that is producing new gear reduction starters for the Jinma tractor. They said they were looking at production of replacement loader valves for the Chinese loaders. I contacted them and asked if they would also consider the backhoe valves. Their initial response was promising.
