Why do you *need 3 remotes? You can't use your top and tilt when the backhoe is connected. Just unplug one and plug the backhoe in.
TYM 574 power beyond rear remote w/backhoe
It's not a need but a want. It's an option, so I want it. Also I have a ditch bank flail mower so I need a third remote if I want to still have the top link working while it is attached.
Also the ag fittings leak more than I'd like so I'd like to be able to leave the top and tilt plugged in as much as possible so the 3rd remote would help with that. Plus the fact there is a 3rd remote option means that they know some people will need/want it.

Any TYM dealer should be able to sell you the kit. The dealer can install it, or you can do it yourself. It's basically just another valve to go in the stack, longer bolts to put your new bigger stack together, and the lever/linkage to the cab for the new valve. You could also cheat and use a hydraulic multiplier with three sets of ports (or more if you want) leave your top and tilt plugged into that, activate them when you need to make an adjustment, and still have both remotes available whenever you need them. Another sly idea is to get the third remote and put a multiplier with two sets of ports off of it, giving you a dedicated top/tilt control lever with a button to swap between the two.
I ended up ordering it from a dealer with a reasonable price compared to what my dealer told me. I just wish I could figure out the kit part number clearly so I could google it.

try 12665084000.
Tractor Tyme, and Tony's Tractor Adventure have both done YouTube videos on the installation. I think Tony's is a bit better. It is the same for the 474 and 574.
Good to know. I see a video from Tony for aa T25. I assume its pretty much the same as a T574.

Similar but different. The transmission on the T25 is different, but happens to be the same as my venerable T233 and T293 tractors. And, having done the rear remote on my T233, I know they are not quite the same. Tony's T25 rear remote video did help with my T233 project. I have a second valve which I was going to use to put a second rear on my T233. But, I will probably install it on the T293 I just bought instead.

That reminds me. It's odd that they are painted black from the factory but when you buy them they are unpainted so it looks really bad. I hate painting but I will need to find a black paint when the part arrives

I know that I am resurrecting an old thread, but I have some valuable information to add on the subject.
1. On my T574, the top set of remotes, labeled "B" is for the backhoe. The lever in the cab has a detente to activate continuous flow for the backhoe.
2. When using this remote, the 3 point lift is not operable.
3. To get full flow to the backhoe, the 3 point arms must be lowered all the way, and the lowering speed control knob must be turned all the way to "fast".
4. You can hook up the backhoe with the 3 point arms still attached, but they cannot lower all the way as they are blocked by the sub frame. I believe this restricts the flow somewhat, but it is acceptable to me for most use cases. Eventually I will get a pressure gauge and find out for sure how much restriction there is.

It's irrelevant because the remotes are connected before the 3 pt valve. Also, the speed control knob, only affects the speed the 3pt lowers, nothing else in the hydraulic system. It will still let it raise at full speed and, when rotated all the way in, won't let the 3 pt drop.
