Hydraulic valve for the H

I'm going to add some plumbing to my H so that I can use a disc with a two-way cylinder. I think that this is the kind of valve I'll need, but in a departure from tradition I thought I'd ask before buying.

I plan to put a T on the Liftall drain for the return, a second stub on the control lever rod to keep the pump flowing through the valve, and a post for the valve mounted on the axle housing where the fender would be bolted on, if I had a fender. What am I forgot?
Thanks, Wm
 
Sounds like you got it figured out.You could however,remove the rod and tie a piece of baling wire to hold the lever to open position.
 
The valve you've selected will work fine. As someone who has pulled a vineyard disk many miles, I would recommend an upgrade to a valve with a detent. That way at the end of a row you can reach over and throw the lever to raise the disk and get your hand back on the wheel for a turn (assuming no power steering on your H). When the disk cylinder reaches the end of its travel, it will kick the valve back to the center position. If you're not doing row-crop work and just dragging the disk around an open field, a detent won't help you much.

To answer your question, it looks like you have a good plan. Pay attention to routing the hoses and be sure to buy enough hose that the either rear tire can hit the hitch on the disk before pulling your new valve post over into your hip.
 
Sounds like a plan. I have a #33 loader with a hydraulic tilt bucket on my H.

It has an extra nub welded on the rod to keep the pump valve open, then a two lever control mounted in place of the right headlight, a one way for the lift cylinders and a two way for the bucket. The rest is simply plumbing and running hoses.
