- The best and most cost effective solution for making your loader and front implements a breeze to connect. The loader set costs less than a forth as much as a single point connector and you can add this solution to your third function implements such as grapples, augers, and mowers.

The last one - black top right - is the hardest. I removed the other three and capped the lines with jic caps. Removed the forth snap ring (a pocket is really useful to pull them around to a good orientation) then I removed the two bolt on that aluminum casting, that allowed me to pull that toward me and spin it to push back over the coupling. Easy to get a wrench on it now…. Not sure but if you can pull that casting with the floor board on - might be possible. Mine is a 2016 1025r. Hope this helps someone
Oh wow, that's even cooler they have like a lock feature. Just ordered them, so looking forward getting them and throwing away the junk stock ones that have leaked since day one. The trade up is very nice feature of your business too there at the end.
Received my flat face couplers Thursday, installed them Saturday and used them today before and after mowing removing and reinstalling my loader. Possibly one of the best accessories I've added to my 1025R. No more messy dangly caps and really easy to connect and disconnect! Love them!!! 👍
I ordered mine today. I called Kevin as I needed more than what was listed plus I needed to cover the mid-mount mower deck hydraulic connection. It was a great conversation and he set me up with everything I needed. I can’t wait to get them and switch everything over. Highly recommend him and his business for anyone on the fence.
Need 8 of them...👍
Well done. Great to see you keep moving along with your ideas for improving these little tractors. Hopefully, your still looking into options for the larger backhoe connections on the rear. I think that could really be a game changer for helping ease backhoe hose connections as those seem to be more of a pain at least to me.
Installed mine yesterday without issues. The hardest one to get to is the top inside one more because of the shape of the mounting bracket that holds the four lines/connectors on the 1025R. Now I want to convert the Summit Hydraulics 4-line in the back to use these or flat face fittings in general.
Thank you for the content and giving us great value for purchases!
👍🏻👍🏻 My Quick Jack 7000 has these type. No drips of oil and so much nicer overall.
Great solution Kevin!
Can you make a kit for a 3R series?
In development. Another month or so...
how you looking on the flat face kit for the 3R? I'll be the first customer!@@HydrosPlus
Your more than welcome to borrow my tractor 😂😂
What about the loader?
The male plugs come with the female couplers showing in this video. The male couplers are simple - just remove and replace.
Do you think these could be installed without removing the floor board? I have the mauser cab and I have no idea how to take the cab off. The floor panel won't come off as the cab sits on top of it.
Yes, it can be done from the bottom. With a lift, it might be easier than removing the floor, but on flat ground, it will be tougher because you'll probably have to be on your back to see.
Will these work on the 2038R?
Yes sir
I've had a few times that I had to use the "block of wood hit onto the end of the hose to relieve enough pressure to connect the loader". Take off in the cool morning, try to reconnect in the hot daytime kinda thing. Would these connect just fine under that kind of pressure? Is there a similar easy remedy to fix it if it happens? It is kinda hinted at in the video, but I was hoping for better clarity in my info.
I think your fuel filter had water in it. Take a look. 🙃
Yes, that's my friend's tractor. I mentioned it to him, but he already knew about it.
My Kubota has flat face couplers, makes swapping hoses so much easier...even my 3rd function kit has the flat face couplers...the downside is they cost more.
Hey there Kevin. Nice video and have been looking forward to these getting put together.
Want to make sure I order the correct options. I of course want to do the main set for the loader; I have a third function, your auger as one implement and want an additional for a future implement like a grapple. So, would that be the Loader + 3rd Function + 1 additional Implement choice? And the other option to select would be 2 Male plugs for additional implements?
That is correct!
