Will backhoe controls from a SL fit a SM 580 CASE?

I have a 580SL series 2 with the 2 lever wobble stick controls. I would like to upgrade. I found a 580SM series 2 that has the 3 lever Case controls w/foot swing. I like the 2 lever better on my SL. Will these interchange from SL to SM?

Yes they will interchange, all you have to do is swap the complete control tower assembly. Of course disconnect linkage at control valve spools and then remove four bolts that hold tower to frame.
