what size of valve(gpm) would i need to add 1 set of rear remotes to my 3016?
im looking at a BM20 from princess auto think i can get a float spool for it too.
Thanks
Shawn

Not sure of the valve you mentioned without looking it up, but you want something that will flow the full 8 gallons per minute of flow that tractor can produce (7.8 actually).

Pretty sure the BM20 is a 20 GPM valve. It's physically a bit on the large size, especially if you only need an 8gpm valve so think about where it will mount. Also, do yourself a favour and even if you are only thinking of one spool now, get a minimum of a 2 spool (if not 3 or 4) and just plug the extra ones for now. It doesn't take long using one to realize you want more ;-)

Thanks JJ. I stand corrected on the flow, must have had a different valve on my mind. My multiple spool comment still stands ;-)
