tractor top-n-tilt & third-function plans

[f designs]

I need someone that is capable of drawing-up plans for a "top-n-tilt" system,
for my Kubota L-3800.

Also, I need plans for a "third-function," if that is also possible.

(Be sure to include charge for your service/s.)

Thanks.

Wow! Beagles AND Bluebonnets !

(I luv runnin' rabbits w/beagles . . . and when in season,
driving around checking out the bluebonnets.)

Yes. Springtime is my FAVORITE time of year!

Are you in BPT proper, or outside of town?

There are TONS of threads in the Hydraulics forum, more than any set of "plans" could ever include. You can also contact Fit Rite Hydraulics - fitritehydraulics.com as he is a well-respected member/vendor on the forum

Are you capable of doing the work yourself both mechanically and hydraulicly?

Otherwise, if someone told you what to get and how to install, could you do it?

Welcome to TBN from Colorado County Texas.

For third function the, WR Long kit is hard to beat and very easy to install. We added this to our NH TL-100A for our 84" grapple and it works great. Some have had good results running hoses from existing remotes but then you have to move back and forth between loader joystick and remote handle. The WR Long kit includes replacement handle for your FEL joystick with electrical rocker switch to control grapple or ??

Top n Tilt from Brian at FIT-RITE is good choice as well as KennyD pointed out.

Good luck!

What I am trying to tell you is that if you know how, and can select parts and put it all together, you can save about 1/2 the cost.

thank you, sir; that's the best place.

yes sir; I used to be a pipefitter, so I should be able to lay-out "right-of-ways"
& run tubing.

J.J. & Rigustafson:

If I had the same list of the (right) parts that someone else just used to install a "top-n-tilt/3rd function"
& a rough pencil sketch--I believe I could "git-er-dun."

I've already read many of the threads & e-mailed Brian . . . the information is really good & Brian is so very
helpful, but I've never run hydraulic & don't want to burn up my pump.

So have you seen this yet? It is really all you need to be able to run the hydraulics for your L3800.

If you want to build your links yourself, buy 2" dia cylinders with a 10" stroke for the top link and a 4" stroke for the side link and just cut the ends off of your OEM units and weld those onto the hydraulics. That is about as inexpensive as I can see you doing this, not the best way, just the cheapest. Be careful about what valves you purchase, some leak quite a bit more than others and make for other problems. Just because it may say "Made in USA" does not make that product good. Sad but true.
