I'm removing the JD loader from a 1965 2010. I plan on removing the (2) remote hoses from top of the valve box control located under the dash? Is it that simple or do I have more to do so I don't damage the hydraulic system?
 
It's an open-center system so DO NOT simply cap the ports.

I'm not sure exactly how the 2010 was adapted for "power beyond"... It MAY be as simply as connecting the two ports with a length of hose, possibly an internal passage MAY have to have a plug removed, or it's possible the end plate for the hydraulic valve(s) will need to be changed. Also, there's at least one serial number break that affects lots of things in the hydraulic valve area.

I have an operator's manual, but I doubt that covers it, I'll look.

A factory shop manual, or possibly a manual for the loader would probably be the best sources of accurate info. (ebay, perhaps?)

WHATEVER you do, DO NOT proceed without knowing for sure what needs to be done, that is not one of the most robust hydraulic systems ever made, and some parts may be hard to get, so you don't want to mess anything up!
 
As Bob stated, it is an open center system and you can not just plug a line off. The last thing you want to do is to damage the hydraulic system.

Post a picture of the setup. Deere offered a Power Beyond that came out of the cowl on the left side above the clutch. I personally think all you will need to do is plumb a line between the two ports to return the oil back to the case.
