Default Installing a 3rd Hydraulic Valve on a 2182???
I would like to install a 3rd hydraulic valve on a 2182. I believe I have the parts to do so including the replacement upper line although I don't know if this can be done easily having a radiator and power steering to deal with. The radiator makes it a challenge to get my hands in there to do any measuring and to see if the lower hydraulic line will have to be bent or will hit the dash tower. Any help would be very much appreciated.

I don't think there was ever a kit to install a third valve in the cyclops series. The metal dash tower is clearly designed to handle three valves in a stack.
I don't see that any changes need to be made to the upper valve and its connections, if you already have the second valve installed. The new lower valve is a different story. You will probably have to fabricate a hose from the bottom of the valve to the AUX line on the power steering pump.
I don't think the radiator will get in the way since all the hydraulic stuff is angled down and away from the radiator. It will be a tight fit however.
I hope you get it to work.

You may want to talk to the owner of this place https://xtrememotorworks.com// I think Aaron has made a few H3s on his personal super garden tractors. He also makes some splitter kits so that you can have a rear hydraulic outlet that is controlled by your angle lever . This is what I am using to have an H4 kit on my Cub 3208: https://summit-hydraulics.com/produc...h-box-control/. It is an electric diverter with a button so I can use one lever for lift and hydraulic angle.

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.
