Read articles →A dealership-produced installation walkthrough showing exactly how to fit a third-function valve kit onto an LS MT2E open station tractor. Leon from Big Tex Tractor identifies each hydraulic port (A, B, P, T), traces where the hoses route through the loader's torque tube, and covers joystick mounting, wiring, and fuse installation. Estimated install time is one to two hours. Best for MT2E owners buying this specific kit who want a step-by-step visual guide before attempting the job.
A dealership channel selling this third-function valve kit directly, so the walkthrough doubles as a product pitch with a dealer-inquiry phone number at the end.
A and B are top ports connecting to long hydro lines going to the loader torque tube. P is power beyond, going back to the loader valve, and T is the tank line returning to the transmission.
The whole process is simple and usually takes about one to two hours.
The wire runs down into the floor mat and under the floorboard, plugs into the solenoid valve, then the red cable goes to positive and the black cable to negative, protected by a 10 amp fuse.
