No I would not worry about it. Haven't heard or seen the problem except for that video. Has
Anyone else ?

The video is not working anymore. Can someone give a brief description of the problem. Thanks.

Why was all the videos pulled? Maybe it was something to do with falsifying documentation in an attempt to discredit LS tractors. No one has heard of this problem on TBN and if it was a problem, I am sure we would have heard something about it, so I doubt it is a design flaw.

Certainly does seem suspect that the video has been pulled.

just looked at this thread. video disabled. sorry if i'm not totally up to speed on the subject. i have a 2012 ls 3039 that i bought new. was working it the other day and it started making an awful racket. called dealer to come out and tell me what's wrong. he says radiator fan is hitting the shroud. and this is happening because your frame is cracked. new frame replaced under warranty. and new frame came with a plate(re-enforcement brace). that's my experience for what it's worth. happened a month ago. 220 hrs. tractor used for brush hogging, snow removal, hauling logs, moving firewood in bucket.

Good info right there! I have come to decide that im not a farmer nor do I own a ranch. So there a tractor at this point is n It for me! How ever I have decided to look at backhoes, industrial equipment is more for my needs!

I remember watching that video and then running out to the garage and looking at my tractor to see if I had that type of frame. I watched it about a week after I bought mine, kinda scared me. I don't think the 4041/4047 have that type do they?

it is my understanding that the 4041 has a heavier duty frame than the 3039. perhaps someone can verify.
