Ford 5000 hydraulics for loader

I just bought a bush hog loader for my 70 ford 5000. The tractor has a single spool hydraulic valve. The loader has a joystick controller on it. Can i use the existing valve on the tractor to control the loader or do i need to use an adapter plate? If I can use the existing how do i go about that? If not, then what is involved in putting the adapter plate on? Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
 
I did that, Plugged the input from the loader into one remote and the return from the loader into the other remote. My tractor valve has a detent so I just pull the valve past the detent and leave it there. You may have to adjust the output pressure in the remote. Works just fine. Your problem will be you have only one remote so you can't use a disk or something else and also use the loader.
 
Lots of tractors have a way to hook up a "power beyond" port- that is, another hydraulic circuit that is always live. Maybe check on the Ford board.

I've also found that you can learn a lot from the parts manual about how to hook up this kind of stuff.
 
If you still want the use of your rear remote then a power beyond plate would be the way to go to for the loader.

If your going to be doing a lot of loader work I would look into a front crankshaft mounted hydraulic pump as the internal pump in the 5000 makes for a slow loader.
 
If it's a decent size loader with big cylinders you best just mount a stinger pump on the front of it right now or you can plan on going for coffee while methusela lifts that to extension. A 5000 makes about 5 gpm...
Just hope you have a 5100 (5000 AP) and not the 5200 (RC). The latter can not accept a stinger shaft due to the axle configueration and front bolster.
