    You're probably going to have to get a lot more specific. Parker probably make hundreds of different valves. Give us a picture, valve type, equipment manufacturer and model and serial #, or no one's probably going to be able to help you.

    Yeah, need some pics. and what ever numbers you can find. A good hyd. shop that sells Parker should be able to help you. Parker bought out a lot of their competition so there are a multitude of different valves under the Parker name. My grader has Gresen valves that are under Parker now as well as Fluid Power Systems for the solenoid valves.

    What it’s on? Grove RT uses VA21/35. Are those plastic or steel? And like other guys say - pictures will go a looong way.

    Parker has at least 2 distinct series of stack valves. Gresen is one and the other I think was Commercial. Prince Hydraulics has a Gresen 20 series compatible product line. The VA series would be the Commercial valves and have higher flow and pressure ratings than the older Gresen valves.

    It depends what model of VA valve you are talking about ( 21,35,83), and what model of Gressen ( 12, 20, 40/42, 50, 70). And that’s only those that available today ( although 40 is phased out, but I know who still have parts for it). Prince has clones for two V12 ( SV) and V20 ( Series 20). There’s also numerous clones of VA - Bailey carry “Chief” brand of clones, Fleetpride sells something else ( escaped me at the moment), then Muncie has the clones also. We still have no idea which one OP was asking for
