Front hydraulics valve control on 149
 
3 Attachment(s)
In my restoration project on my 149, I decided to add front hydraulics. I really wanted the mod to look and fit like it came with the tractor, and the action to work really smoothly, so this is what I came up with. I have everything dry fitted, and ready for fine detail finishing. Before I paint the center tower I thought I would post this for any input or comments that anyone thinks may improve the finished product.

What do you think?

I think you did a killer job! :beerchug::beerchug:

Yea, sneaky even, lol.
Is there two handles and one shaft running thru a tubular shaft there on the right?

Took another look at that, when you paint it just clear coat the underside of the tower, that is a work of art. :beerchug:

Thanks for the kind words. I have an image showing the assembly detail, and the no spill quick disconnects I plan to use.

I added the image below, including the no-spill quick connects too

That's a fine piece of work. Nicely done. I hope to do that someday for one of my QL's.

the dual shafts are similar to a quiet line design, and the handles look like 82 series handles. I like the design and the LOOK! Nice!

that will be nice controlling the dual spools with the right hand and hydro with the left! exactly opposite of my 782 lol
