Massey Ferguson 2860E 3rd function install

[ajenkins2]

Has anyone attempted to install a third function kit on 2860 yet? or anything similar? The loader is FLX 2815. Talked to the dealer and they told me was very hard to do and that those who attempted to do it start and bring it to them to finish. Not sure how true that is. The hardest part looks to be routing the wire for the solenoid. The hydraulic lines currently run though the frame so that also seems to be a pain to drag 2 new lines through. Dealer wants over $1900 to install. I can find the parts online for under $1000. (Part number VKMFL135E). So is it really 900 dollars worth of complications? So any advice/links to instructions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Austin

Welcome to Net tractor talk.
Unfortunately I have not see anyone post about doing a project like you are jumping into. There might be a member sitting back who has and I hope they jump in but if they don't please don't take that a disinterest. We just don't know.
I hope you will post your progress here as you move through this ...that is if you decide to give it a shot.
Good luck.
