    Snow  Installed Snowblower on J2023H - no hydraulics

    So long story short...I removed my FEL today and installed my LS front mount snowblower. I hooked up the hydraulic connections (4 of them, I did get the hydraulic chute control too) and gave it a shot...realized I had placed them in the wrong spots so I swapped them around so they'd be same...

    J2023 cracked muffler

    Been hearing a rattling under the hood so when I went looking I found this...anyone else seen this happen? Ive owned the tractor for just about 3 years now (only 94 hours on it though) so I think its safe to assume the 5-year factory warranty will cover this? Planning to load it up and trailer...

    Anyone know of any websites that sell individual LS filters? Specifically looking for a 40056451 for my J2023H. The lstractorparts.com website seems to only sell entire filter kits...but the HST and Hydro filters are not done as frequently as I like to do the oil and fuel filters. Don't really...

    I posted this in the general buying forum but thought it might be more fitting in the LS forum... So Ive narrowed it down to either the 2023 or 2030...they have everything I need at a great price, and I can use a FRONT mount snowblower which will be 10x easier for my wife than having to back...

    LS 2023 or 2030?

    So Ive narrowed it down to either the 2023 or 2030...they have everything I need at a great price, and I can use a FRONT mount snowblower which will be 10x easier for my wife than having to back down our driveway...
