    Everything looks good but the 2 towers hooked to the front bumper are going to bend. Either the tractor frame or themselves. That's why they mount them in the middle of the tractor

    I have a John Deere 400 that I had dreams of adding a FEL to. Most of the builds I saw had a separate hydraulic system. Was confused why not just use what's already on the machine, figured I was missing something. Glad to see it's possible to just use the existing system.

    I have a 400. You can use the remote ports, but it’s kinda under powered on the stock 400 pump. However, if you add a separate pump you can use the remote ports as a 3rd and 4th function.

    @@Your_Friend_Corey I'm not sure but in the video you can hear he's got the rpms up and the bucket is going up and down pretty slow. Maybe that's ok for you but most people put an external pump on for faster speeds and more power. The tractor's pump was never intended to do anything but drive the tractor and run a couple of short stroke hydraulic cylinders, like for a plow. All the other attachments are PTO driven and not hydraulic drive. I also think the fluid would get too hot and you could cook your transaxle which would be expensive. I think it's best to add an additional pump and reservoir for the loader.
