Yes, I need seperate control of the front and rear attachments. I need the rear blade to pull the snow from in front of objects I can't get behing to push the snow, (garage doors, etc.). Right now they work together. I have factory dual hydraulics, but intend on obtaining the blade angling kit. As I'm splitting the front hydraulics, I'd need a valve to lock out the front of rear hydraulics, otherwise the front blade would angle when I used the rear blade. I figure I can install a complete single hydraulic circuit for the rear using the factory control valve. Hardest part should be quick disconnects on both sides of the control valve so I can remove the fender pan. The company that supplies our hydraulic fittings, etc. at work told me to bring the tractor in once I have desided where I want to mount the control valve. I want to use tubing on as much of the system as possible. I'm thinging the tubing will be easier to keep in place along the frame rails. I'm not crazy about mounting the control valve on the fender, but the only other option I see is removing the plate where the shifter would be on a gear drive and mounting it on top of the tranny. Then the cooling fan might be a problem.
