Great video. Ordered my 37 a few weeks ago. Hoping it will be an improvement over my Jubilee 🤔😁. Love our old Ford but looking forward to having the bucket and backhoe. The wife has been forming a list as long as Santa's list since she found out.
Yes sir. What you are describing is a diverter valve system. They require almost the exact same level of effort to install, the biggest difference being where you get your hydraulic supply flow. I’m not a fan of diverter systems.
I found a local hydraulic/pneumatic shop and took the original 90degree fitting out of the Power Beyond port to get it right. Local small shop that assembled several fittings for me to adapt from standard fittings to the ‘British’ thread fittings, as they called it. Sorry no numbers, was handed them all threaded together without special ordering something for my exact match. They charged me $22 for everything, still way cheaper than OEM diverter kit. If you try to do a similar install, would recommend pulling the 90degree and go get it matched. I’m super happy with my third function install, works perfect. That RK37 has been amazing and runs like a top!
Thank you very much. I was looking everywhere on Google and YT for where the power beyond port was and could find an answer. Your video answered it.
Nice detailed install

is this a true third function where you don't have to move the lever left or right with the buttons ?
