    You basically have two choices. One OEM remote valve @$1200 or an aftetmarket/DIY valve for a half to a third if that. On a L02 DIY is...

    Why use the third function valve? Why not come off the FEL valve power beyond port to hook up the rear remotes? You might have to make...

    Can you precisely feather your grapple close and open with your 3rd function? - If you can (since you need to do that for a toplink)...

    Ok, got it. That sounds like a good idea. I could just pull off the existing hose clamps on the loader and secure the hoses using...
