The photo you show of the 3000 is using an external valve and is tapped into the blank hydraulic cover like in my first picture.
Second photo shows a Ford remote vlave which bolts onto the tractor in place of that cover. This one is a dual - ie - has two spools/ two handles. This one is set up for one single acting valve and one double acting valve - they are convertable.
You still have a snake's nest with any remote application but a bolt on remote does eliminate the pair of hoses from the blank cover to the aftermarket spools.
Sorry about the snow. I just took these photos. I think that darned Gary from MT sent this stuff our way.
I am well aware of the OEM valve setup - it's very expensive, 100% proprietary inside and out, and I don't much care for it. If I had it AND it would do what I needed I'd use it but I certainly wouldn't pay to add it to my tractor. I'll take a couple hoses (or hard lines) and a non-proprietary much less expensive solution using industry standard off the shelf components I can obtain at any hydraulic supply. It works every bit as well and better in some applications. I can configure and purchase a Prince 4 spool sectional with my choice of individual spool options for $375. Another $100 for a couple hoses and a maniflod gets it hooked up to the same supply and return ports the OEM valve uses. Compare that to a new 2 spool OEM style valve which is nearly $1000 aftermarket and a whole lot more from CNH.

Today's Featured Article - Madison's County - by Anthony West. Philip Madison has been a good friend of mine for quite some time. He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
