So i have a mahindra 5570 loader and want a grapple it has 2 sets of rear remotes with valves I do not need them is it possible to use for grapple with electric switch I dont think i need nor do i wanna pay 1500 for third function.Im not wanting to loose my curl to close grapple.I just cant find where anyone is willing to loose rear remotes to have grapple thanks it would be great if someone patient could explain it.

If you have remotes with valves, you should be able to run two hoses to the front for use with a grapple. Just have to have the right ends to plug into the remotes.

Exactly what I did. Also put discos at the loader so I could easily remove it in the futute.

More complicated, but I would put tees into those lines where they come out of the valves and run hard lines to the proper location for the grapple connections. John Deere does this. Two quick connects for the same valve port.

Damn, I wish I had run my diverter off my rear remotes now.

I plumbed it off the curl function and have used it heavily for 4yrs, but coming off the back (not used when using grapple) makes so much more sense .
