Re: Adding a spool valve

Yes, I already have a selector valve, and that's partly why it was a relative pain to add in the extra tee's to split off to the new relief valve ports: One of my accessory lift lines already had a Tee in it. So now packed into the space between the frame rails, just on the 2 accessory lift lines I have one tee with an extra hardline coming from one lift line and 2 tee with extra lines coming from the other lift line. As I referred to in an earlier post, rather than install two consecutive tee's with a bunch of adapters and converter fittings, I chose to machine a single 4-way manifold, with a single "in" port and 3 "out" ports. That goes a long way to keeping things neat and compact.Jancoe wrote: ↑Wed Jun 22, 2022 12:46 pm Awesome. I'm glad you pursued the power beyond and didn't abandon it with the obstacles you came into. You now have a perfect setup where everything will have its own relief and full control of each valve. Now that you have it done what would you have done differently, anything you didn't like? Like a selector valve for the 3 point and mid lift? Or did I miss that and you already have that?
Wish I had the time to build a hydraulic setup like yours. I don't need a loader on my 4020 because of my 2 6018's but would like a power beyond so I can add accessory ports and make more hydraulic attachments.
Fun stuff. Glad you shared your build here.

But there's a lot of fttings and lines running through that little space, no two ways about it. Here's a look up at the TCV with the camera under the deck/mid lift pointing back toward the transaxle.
It must have been fun getting it all hooked up in the right order.
