Default 3 Spool Control Valve & QL Cylinder, Rear Lift

Hello: All, I'm sure this may have been covered before but I have not been able to find anyone that has actually completed this modification and posted how it was done.

I have a 1450 where I would like to install a JD140H3 / 3 Spool Control Valve, with Levers on the left side of the Tower and a QL Cylinder placed between the Frame and Transaxle than connecting the Cylinder Ram to the Rear Lift Lever.

The Tractor Modification:
1. The Stock Lift /Mower/Blade & Blower.
2. One for the Rear connected to the Lever Lift.
3. Install a 3 Spool Valve.
4. Move Hydraulic Valve Levers to left side of Tower.

I have measured the space between and it appears that the Cylinder from a QL may fit in-between without obstruction. The Cylinder Ram connects to the Lift Lever which looks to be a 1/2” bolt & if not the hole could be modified to fit on the Cylinder Ram. I'm thinking the Cylinder side could be mounted with a class 8 Bolt at the correct length with a drilled hole reinforced on the frame which could pivot.

John Deere 3 spool control valve, ( from JD140H3 /400 Series) Valve-1/ Stock Lift, Valve-2 / Front Hydraulic Quick Connects, Valve -3 w/float / Rear Hydraulic Cylinder.
I would really appreciate if anyone has completed this Modification and/or can provide any additional information including thoughts if it could work, pitfalls and other suggestions.

1. What was the Plan?
2. Will it actually work?
3. QL Cylinder issues ?
4. What additional modifications updates or suggestions?

My regular Email is "mazzbob@gmail.com" if that is easier.

I would really appreciate any assistance, information and suggestions.

Thank You All, BOB

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
