{"product_id":"jk-cab-tractors","title":"Universal Joystick Kit for Cab Tractors","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe universal joystick kit has the main hydraulic components needed for controlling a front end loader, bucket, and grapple on a farm tractor. The main difference between the universal kit and a complete joystick kit is, the universal kit does not include hoses, tractor-specific mounting brackets, or a power beyond block. These items need to be added by the person installing the kit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThere are several situations where a universal joystick kit may be preferred over a complete joystick kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA complete joystick kit is not offered for your tractor model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou have the setup for building brackets and hoses, and prefer to build these items yourself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features of Universal Joystick Kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual (cable) controls for loader and bucket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric (buttons in joystick grip) for grapple.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh quality joystick, cables, and control valve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible installation - installer selects location joystick and valve are placed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Joystick Kit Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2-Function or 3-Function\u003c\/strong\u003e - 2-Function if only a loader and bucket need to be controlled. 3-Function if there is also a grapple or other 3rd function to control (3rd function is electric).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosed Center or Load Sense\u003c\/strong\u003e - Closed Center (Pressure Flow Compensated \/ PFC) valve designed for tractors with Closed Center hydraulic setup.

The most common way these are accessed is via a power beyond block, but other options are teeing in to existing lines on the tractor or using a pair of rear remotes to supply the pressure and return.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere would you like the joystick installed? The brackets supplied with the universal kit mount the joystick from the floor of the cab, but if you prefer to build your own brackets for mounting the joystick, common places to mount the joystick are: from the front right post of the cab, from the side of the cab, or between the seat and console.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere do you want the control valve installed? The length of the cables is 86\", which allows some flexibility on where you place the valve. The most common area it is mounted is under the front-right section of the cab; in some situations where there is not enough room in this spot, it is installed on the rear of the tractor, typically right below the back cab window.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo you want the Pioneer quick couplers installed directly on the valve, or do you prefer the couplers installed somewhere between the valve and the loader steel lines? The kit comes with the Pioneer couplers as well as the fittings needed to install them directly on the valve. However, depending on where you install the valve, it may be more convenient to have the couplers installed on a bracket between the valve and loader lines; in a situation like this, the couplers are typically installed on a bracket that is attached to the loader upright.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe universal kit includes the following

universal joystick kit with the closed center valve works with the John Deere 2350, 2355, 2550, 2555, 2750, and 2755 tractor models. The way to tap into the pressure and return on the John Deere 2750 and 2350 are shown in the pictures below. Note: the pressure and return fittings and hoses are not included in the universal joystick kit. These items need to be sourced separately from the universal joystick kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow to tap into pressure: Remove tee fitting located behind the right side battery box and replace it with a cross fitting for pressure to the loader midmount valve. The cross fitting has all #10 Male JIC threads. Part number of the fitting is 2650-10-10-10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow to tap into return: The return line runs parallel all the way back to the transmission oil filter housing which had a capped tee in place. Remove the cap and attach the return hose there.
