I have checked my pressures with a pressure gauge i have connected to a short hose and quick connect and they are all on spec. The only reason I set mine up the way I did is because I want the two remotes to run my T-N-T and I had the fittings and hoses for the true power beyond from JD. Therefore, I decided to make full flow available to the rear of the tractor through the power beyond sleeve installed on the rear remote valve so I could run hoses to my log splitter valve and not have to mess with the rear remotes at all. It was just a cleaner set up for me...

Hi Brad - Understood on the "cleaner set-up" aspect. And I have yet to instrument my tractor and gather data to understand what pressure drop there might be through my FEL control valve and rear remote set. I won't even print the numbers (i.e., high pressure drop) I was told I might see because I don't yet believe them. I will post a full report within the next 30-45 days.
