Frank, welcome to TBN, but turn off the caps lock! It's considered shouting, and is harder to read. Thanks.
To have TNT, you need extra hydraulic outlets. I'm not that familiar with the 990, but I suspect you can come up with enough hydro to get TNT. You have to add rear remotes, or maybe one rear remote and also hoses coming off the main valve body if it has power beyond valves on it.
Madreferee can probably tell you more about it, but I suspect you can have it.
Also contact Mark (CCI on here). Look at the Dealers section and find Carter and Carter. He sells TNT equipment and can tell you what you need.

The best place to buy the actual TNT setup (joystick valve and cylinders) is Carter & Carter (CCM) .

As for how to plumb it up on a JD990, I am not exactly sure what you have and what you need. If you buy the valve from CCM then I would think all you need is the power beyond option for the JD.

I'm sure one of our JD experts can jump in here and help.

I just put the CCI TNT set up on my NH. I had the dealer install a rear remote and connected the TNT into the rear remote with quick attach hoses. I considered the power beyond option but by using the rear remote, I can very easily remove the entire set up from my NH and swap it over to the Kubota. The most expensive part was installing the new rear remote. I suspect the job could be done far less expensively by tapping into the power beyond on your 990's loader valve or adding one to the valve.

Mark Carter sold me the set up and was very helpful after the fact when my dealer was trying to figure out my valve options.
