First time here. I recently went to a local sale and came home wita a 3430 with 217 hours on it. It came with a mower, snow blower, loader, broom, and front blade. The loader has the joystick control with the hyd outlets in front of the cab on the right side. However, there is no hyd outlets to the rear. Do any or you guys (or gals) know if rear hydraulics can be added while keeping the joystick for the loader? I thank you for any and all help!

Welcome to TBN! You're gonna love this site.
I also have a 3430. I have two remotes in the back for a top and tilt set up. I can't tell you how to do it, but lots of others here can. My remotes are plumbed to the same block as the loader lines are. Just follow the lines and you will see they lead to a block under the tractor about where the joystick is located. The dealer didn't do anything fancy: The block is set up for it (it's refered to as "power beyond".

I have a non-cab, FST version. I am completely happy with it. I only have about 225 hours on it, and it has worked flawlessly. I use mine on the foothills of the sierra nevads in California, and there is always plenty of power to do what I want.

Have fun with the tractor, and please post pictures of your new tractor. Photos are mandatory on TBN!

A search of the hydraulic section should show you how to add remotes. It is frequently discussed. I posted pictures of the remotes added to my B7800. Maybe they will help.
