I'm looking for someone that has modified the blade control valve system on a Komatsu 6 way blade. I've built a 3 point hitch for the back of mine and would like to add an other center block and the linkage kit for the joystick (4 way control) By adding a second center block and reversing the linkage from inside to outside of the push-pull block I can have the left-right function control the front blade push angle. Then the push-pull control would raise and lower the 3 point hitch. I checked with the dealer here in middle GA and the only way to buy the block I need is to buy whole 3 valve assembly ($4300.00) a price of 1/3 of the dozer.<br>
If anyone knows where I can get the manufactures name and part number for the center valve block for the 6 way blade it would make this upgrade much easier.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

I've pulled several posts both fence and sat. dish posts using the 3 pt hitch on the tractor. Just back up with the post between the lift arms and wrap a HEAVY chain around the post hook on to the lift arms and lift SLOWLY. I don't know how well this will work with a small tractor but a 5500 lb 50 HP Ford works well.
