Just for reference, I bought my 1999 model LK3054 with the same LK128 loader and a 5' boxblade last year. The hour meter had stopped at 420 hours and I don't really know how many hours it had on it but the guy I bought it from guessed another 100 since the hour meter stopped. So I guess it had 550 - 600 hours on it. It had been stored outside so tha paint is pretty faided and it has a little rust on it. The hood is dented in a little bit and the front grill is missing. Oh yeah.. the top of the ROPS is missing too. So, it's not in the best of shape, but it does run very good and the hydraulics are strong. I paid $7k for it. It was a little more than I wanted to spend on it, but it was the only one I could find that was in the right hp range with 4wd and a loader in 250 mile radius. I don't have any regrets!!

Good luck with yourse!
