Thanks. For clarity, I have the standard R14s with 1.5” Kubota spacers in the rear. They are also filled. I get to do all the snow stuff this year (first year) with an open station - I so can’t wait! <insert sarcasm>. Thoughts on front tire chains? Doesn’t seem that Aquiline size down...

Been searching high and low for suggestions on snow chains for my LX, but have not found anyone using chains with (specifically) R14 tires. I am on a steep grade, will be using a front snow blower on blacktop. I keep getting hung up on the R14s and the fear that what I get will end up between...

Any chance you can scan the install instructions for the subframe?

I think the "dealer prep fee" you may be seeing is the unboxing of the blower itself, installing the chute, lubing the gearbox, etc. (I have NO affiliation), but I recall Ryan Lynch doing an unboxing and install of a different model blower, but I imagine the "set up" is the same. From what...

I will be in the same boat soon too. Dealer asked for $500 to install, but I am not anywhere local so I will be piling on as much as I can on the trailer/truck for delivery (read more implements!). With that said, however, 4 point front hitch needs to be installed (aka sub frame) and then my...

Newaterman, would I be able to trouble you for a picture or two of how the plumbing is set up between your grapple and third function?

All makes sense now! Thanks!!!

I was thinking the same, but there really isn't anything to zip tie to and/or if zip tied would probably restrict motion (or risk of tearing the hose).

Thanks for the pictures! Couple questions if you don't mind: 1. Do you have the elbows bringing the hose vertically on the grapple or running horizontally? 2. In your third picture and the left hose, is that fixed on the loader? I can't tell and am having a hard time...

Thanks, I am thinking of doing the elbow just on the loader frame and see how that goes.

My beautiful LX2610 arrived last week (waiting since March!) and am having some issues with the Land Pride SGC0660 grapple and hoses (that came with it) getting caught on the loader... Pictures say a thousand words, but I am wondering if others have experienced this or have some...

I reached out to the dealer and the response was along the lines of, "if we sell you a tractor with a FEL, you get filled tires". Unlike Freeheeler, there is a charge, but it's all good.

Great conversation everyone, thanks for all the participation.

Thanks. The thing, I quickly realize is that by "filling" the tire, the available air space ends up being rather limited and thus if you're running over say, a rock, that the tire is going to absorb some amount of that obstacle. Throw a ~900 pound BH attachment to the back and the "push" is...

You're likely correct that ROPS is more of the "issue" as opposed to anything else. At some point weight and metal have some sort of breaking point and then a manufacturer can only account for so many scenarios outside of their control.
