Got the plumbing all figured out thanks to forum members, So I'm finally getting ready to order a joystick for the front end loader. Looking at Prince valves with power beyond. Would an 11 GPM work on a 185? I think the factory spool uses 10 GPM. Should I just get a 25 GPM for plenty of volume?

Open-Center with Power-Beyond. Figuring you wouldn't be using the loader at wide open throttle, I guess 11 GPM would work. But if the 25 GPM isn't very much more money???? it would be more than you need but....

I would go with the higher flow. It will work with a 11 gpm but it will cause the oil to heat up. I saw this on my 190XT with a 16 gpm valve.

Thanks. It's only a $40 dollar difference.
