Hi
I have a Tanco 978 loader currently fitted onto my Marshall 802, at the moment just running off the spools with long pipe running under cab to loader, i am after a more permenant solution and possibly transfer it onto my 262 which would free up the 802, i have looked online and saw you can buy joystick kits but at around £750 seems a lot of money for what i need, does anyone have any ideas or solutions for on more of a budget? Ideally would like a joystick but can't afford to at that price, anyone experienced anything similar or have any suggestions? I have a third service valve for it already just needs fitting, so would need to factor that into it as most are just a two way control. Thanks

If you have installed that valveblock you could just use a service on the back of the tractor to run your third function.
Yeah didn't think of that, could be an option as I've already got the 3rd service valve itself just would be the button in joystick then and a lot cheaper than the one with it.
Have you had a look at hydraulic equipment supermarket?
No I haven't heard of that before, where is it? Thanks
