What did you do on or to your LS Tractor today?

[papachaz]

ok so I got it all cleaned up, and took the wife out and got her on there. only the 2nd or 3rd time in her life she's been on a tractor, everything I've always had before was old, really hard clutch and no power steering, so she wasn't in the least interested..... but today, she got on and helped me with a couple of things in the yard, some stumps I needed to move to the soon to be burned pile....

Great job Mrs pappachaz! I'm still trying to get my wife interested in the tractor. She can do anything if only she tried!

no my dealer is in Rome, so yours DOES have the plastic pedal on it? Yeah, I'll call him on it for sure. Funny you mention the bolts, I hit a big limb buried in the tall grass yesterday and broke the bolt, no extras. Luckily, the guy only lived a few miles from our TSC, so I raised the ramps on the trailer and ran over there. went ahead and bought a pound of nuts and bolts so I'll have extra. He actually even told me to include that time in my cutting time, because it was his limb. I told him no, because it might have been his limb, but it was on me for not having extra bolts with me, I just didn't feel right about charging him for the 30 minutes I wasn't cutting while I was chasing down bolts....

You did not buy grade 5 did you? Those will do damage. The shear bolt are grade 2. They are back in the tractor section. I thought the dealer was Canton. I been to your dealer to get the pto solinoid that got broke. I like the other dealer better. Mine has the crocked rod.

I remember when mine looked like that for about a week then I put it to work. Rear lights busted or gone. Fuel filter knocked of twice last time just got a 3 port filter. Scratches dents.

Consider some type roof. Mine is a golf cart top.

just the plain ole bolts by the pound TSC sells. I'm pretty sure if they're not designated otherwise, they're all grade 2 aren't they?

well in three weeks, I've put 35 hours on it. 12 of that bush hogging, a good bit of the rest of it digging up/pushing over scrub and trees on one side of my property

Grade 2 bolts wont have lines like a pie shape. They may still have letters(bolt makers initial's) Grade 5 will have 3 lines and grade 8 will have 6 lines(or the number). As long as you bought the plain old zinc plated bolts you are good. Those are grade 2. You also asked about the shuttle throttle pedal on the XG3025. It does not have a plastic shoe. The XG3135(and larger) is the first model in the current line to have the plastic shoe.
