[QUOTE="vinito, post: 89909, member: 12954"] Thanks for the advice, guys. I keep sitting here thinking and now I have created a new wrinkle. My head is buzzing with goofy ideas and I believe it might be cool (and simple) to hack the bucket attachment pins with a cylinder so that I could change attachments without leaving the seat. It's just an opposing, inline pair of pins arrangement to release/attach the bucket, etc. I'm just thinking that since I'm in the middle of this anyways, maybe I could pull that off pretty easily by purchasing a 4-spool valve instead. They have two that should work - neither has a float detent (but as mentioned, not a deal-breaker) and [URL='http://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Valves/Directional-Control-Valves/4-SPOOL-PRINCE-SV-VALVE-9SV-4-X-BBBB-9-7557.axd']one has 12GPM max [/URL]with the desired relief valve range (and ooooh, it's a stack), and another [URL='http://www.surpluscenter.com/Hydraulics/Hydraulic-Valves/Directional-Control-Valves/4-SPOOL-20-GPM-HYDAC-RM230-HYD-CONTROL-VALVE-9-8617-4.axd']one with 20GPM max [/URL]monoblock but it has no relief valve, and also would be slightly easier to mount.
