Rear hydraulics CK25/30HST

Would any of this be of any help with a rear finish mower??
It looks cool but would need some justification of cost.
I plan on maintaining a looong gravel drive with either a box blade or one of those drag behind driveway maintainer framework deals.

Top and tilt is really no help with a finish mower.
The are great/excellant help with a box blade, rear blade, rake, Etc.
I also use my top link a lot when I was clearing heavy brush areas. I could tilt up the back of my cutter, back into the brush and lower the cutter down using the hydraulic top link.
This way I could clear the worst brush areas on my property with the least amount of scratchs on my tractor paint.
My hydraulic top link gets used a lot.. Real handy feature to have.

The unit CCM sells (Integration Engineering) functions with only one set of remotes...

From the IE website:

<font color="blue"> Traditionally, the tractor needed one remote valve (2 hose outlets) for each remote cylinder (two cylinders). By using a joystick valve, Terrain Contour Control controls both cylinders through 1 valve requiring only 1 hydraulic connection to the tractor hydraulics. </font>

The joystick setup would be nice. I've gotten very used to it with the fel. Maybe I missed it somewhere but what is the web site for CCM?
If you already have the two remotes for when attaching a backhoe, does lines run from them to the joystick and then to the hydralic links or do you tap into the hydralic system another way?
Thanks, Vic
