Okay folks, I ordered a tree shear and a grapple for my loader and had to force myself to install 3rd function. The instructions are in the loader install manual. They are as clear as mud. Every piece of the actual Kubota kit is the quality you expect. The valve itself is 30 plus lbs. I guess if anyone can find this post it will be beneficial. The main loader valve stays on tractor. The main hydraulic hose must be removed before you can install 3rd function valve from under the tractor. The hose is removed and no longer needed. If you've prepped the valve as per the instructions you add two fittings to tractor where you remove two plugs. Then I sat valve on my chest and rolled under tractor, lifted valve into place and started nuts on studs. The valve mounts behind the loader valve. Once you get this done, the rest is self explanatory. I cut a bit too much off joystick rubber boot because the instructions are so confusing. I may order another boot and correct it, but it will r
Apparently the electronic servo looking unit was shown to me by dealer on his tractor only. His 3rd function was a Land Pride. I guess my brain remembered that image and thought it was in my kit. To be clear, there is no servo looking unit in my kit. I'm guessing some type of controller is already on board. There are wiring harnesses and other assorted wires terminated in clip fasteners. Also, the new joystick loader controller with 3rd function buttons has the wires neatly tucked inside the joystick. I haven't seen that on any other 3rd function system. I will add that the entire kit looks complicated to install.
