The video documents the physical install step by step but stops before field testing, the creator explicitly flags this as an intro with a follow-up planned. Best for LS MT357 owners weighing these exact upgrades.
An owner-operator channel documenting upgrades on their own tractor, though the video includes an enthusiastic endorsement of the installing dealership, Sandy Lake Implement.
It lets you adjust tilt and pitch of an implement like a box blade from the cab, replacing manual turnbuckle cylinders with hydraulic ones, giving up, down, tilt left, tilt right, and pitch forward or back.
It includes hoses and new tubing, a mount plate for the loader crossmember, quick connects, a wiring harness, a replacement joystick, and a new valve for the loader valve.
The creator says the top and tilt kit was easy enough to do himself, but the third function kit was more involved and he was glad to have the dealer install it.
You can run attachments like grapples and post hole diggers that require auxiliary hydraulic flow off the front end of the loader.
