Hello! First post here! Thanks for the forum! I recently got myself a new Grand L3940 cab tractor. I love the thing. I only have about 50 hours on it so far but its in the running for my most favorite piece of equipment I've owned.
Its pretty loaded out except they neglected to order it with rear remotes. I guess its optional. Anyway, of course, I noticed it beforehand but figured I'd add them later if I turned out to need them. That day has arrived. I recently picked up a really nice Land Pride 3572 box blade that sure would be even better with hydraulics and I'm considering adding a skid steer snow blade to the FEL. Problem is I don't have enough hydraulics for them!
Poking around this forum and Google, I can't really find the part # to the kit I need or details about how big of deal it is to add them to this particular tractor. If I can find an aftermarket valve they are higher than what the dealer wants for the whole thing or close to it, which adds to my confusion.
Any input would be great. Oh, the dealer wants about 800-1000 dollars to add them. I'm pretty handy with a wrench and like to do things myself if it makes sense. For some reason I have terrible luck and end up paying premium for half-arse work. Dunno if any of you have that issue too. But, like I said, if its not a huge deal I end up doing stuff myself if at all possible. Of course, sometimes it doesn't financially make sense to do so. Anyway, thanks in advance for the help and again, thanks for the forum!
