kubota mx5100
I have a Kubota MX5100 that I would like to plant some grass seed in my yard with a no till grain drill. I don't have any rear remotes but I do have hydraulics on the front of my tractor to run my grapple. Can I get some more hydraulic hoses and temporarily attach to the front hoses and run them to the back just to run a no till drill? Will this work?

If it just needs one output for raise /lower,
or some of those are on single action cylinders.
That would mean just one line but it would need a float position in the valve,
or run it against the relief.

So I should be ok if it is not a single action cylinder. Correct?

If it's a double acting cylinder and you run two hoses most likely,
even a double acting can be run in a float mode depending on the application.
If need be you could either remove your loader and use that valve with it's float function,
or block the loader up and use the valve then.
When I use my Branson on our no till which does use a single acting cylinder I dead head it against the relief,
for a few seconds 3 or 4 times to get the weight off the wheels and on to the coulters.
