My brother has a 155 and loves it as well, Guess I will be keeping my r322t for now, like the easy on and traction as well as compact size

On my 5 acres I use both a jd 345 and a Husqvarna r322t 4wd articulating both with 48 inch decks. The jd is a little faster with it’s kawi vtwin liquid engine but the husky with the vtwin Briggs is better around trees and soft hilly area’s. It seems I use the husq most of the time, easyier...

I have 2013 LS 5030C with about 1300 hours on it and it has a Mitsubishi 205 cubic inch non turbo 4 cyl 58 hp engine that has been flawless for my small acreage, 2 cuts of hay with 9 foot Haybine and round baler. Many other chores such as plowing, cultivating, box scraper etc. AC& heat during...

I have a 2013 LS 5030c ( Korean) with a Mitsubishi engine and have 1300 hrs on it with zero issues other than new battery 2 years ago. I am ashamed to say I have never changed the oil or filter in the Tran/ hyd system and works flawless. I change engine oil and filter annually using...

Personally I don’t care for large displacement engines with only one cyl. I know that some models of the defender and gator & maybe others have 3 cyl engines that are very smooth and quiet. I have a 2013 case/ih scout xl ( made by club car) with a kawi v twin 670 air cooled engine that runs very...

What I don’t like in a lot of utv’s is the single cylinder engine. They seam loud, do not have a nice exhaust note and more vibration. I think the defender and gator have 3 cyl engine available on some models that sounds like a car not an old John Deere tractor (2 cyl). I don’t think they should...

A few years ago I could not get one of the calipers off my ford chassis class A motorhome even with he long pipe trick and 3/4 inch bar so bought a torque multiplier at Princess Auto and it worked well, bolt came right out. Would not use it for tightening. Multiplier still sits under my bench...

Several rad shops around here in Winnipeg MB

I would bite the bullet and buy a new one ( I’m good at spending other people’s money) but at the least take it to a rad shop

I bought a manual diverted valve from princess auto in Winnipeg that worked very well and no leaks for many years until selling the tractor

An old v style rear blower would work well as you are driving forward as long as the snow is not more than a foot or so deep so the tractor can go thru it

If all else fails, instal a spring loaded toggle switch on the dash wired direct to bat and glow plugs. Hold in on position for 15 to 30 seconds depending on outside temp, then start, I did this with my mf 220-4 10 years ago and still works fine.

Never did hear what the problem was with the tractor in the first place

If I can’t find or reach a suitable towing point on the vehicle I put my strap thru the spokes of the rear wheel ( if towing from behind on a front wheel drive car) or if from the front make sure the driver is not trying to help. I prefer to use the tow bar on the rear of the tractor and not on...

I would ask the dealer who put on the 7 hours. Was it a demo or was it sold to someone and returned or repossesd. If it was sold maybe you could contact the buyer and find out if there were any problems. I don’t know why the factory warranty would not apply with such low hours

I will probably get some critic response here but my 2013 LS 5030c has never had a trans/hyd oil or filter change and has about 1500 hours on it. The oil still looks clean and everything operates fine except the pto (hyd, electric) will not stay engaged until warmed up in the winter. I put the...

I have a 2000 jd 345 with Kawasaki liquid cooled twin engine. First thing I did when I bought it new was disconnect the deck & seat cutout’s. Have 1600 hours with very little trouble. Still has the original spindles. Replaced the clutch once only because I bent the sheaves and belts would not...

Best thing I did for my 6 foot box blade was install a hydraulic top link

Drive close to the tree with rear wheel of tractor. Put a chain tight around shrub & around lowest part of the wheel & just drive forward

Even with a bad injection pump or glow plugs it should at least kick with ether spray. To check glow plugs, remove and lay them on the block or ground them with a jumper then with them cycled on check to see if they get hot and glow. You could also just connect them to any 12v dc battery and do...

Disconnect the hoses from the main loader lift arms then put a chain over top connected to the back hoe and loader then raise loader using the hoe and pull the tractor out with another tractor or cat

I would be suspicious of the starter drawing too many amps, may not be a battery or charging system problem at all

I have a LS 5030c 58 hp and a 6 foot box blade. My 40 year old gravel driveway is hard packed with several dips that I would like to level. Just bought the box blade and have not used it yet. I also bought a hydraulic top link as well. My question is, do I use the draft control and if so how to...

Have two cabbed tractors and one os. Grew up with os tractor and still enjoy the open feeling however the os tractor rarely comes out in the winter. I sure like the cabbed tractor for all the reasons mentioned and will add one small plus for the cab. In haying season quite often I can’t get the...

Still like the old centre underground air/hydraulic post then you have zero posts when not using

I had a 530 universal tractor for 15 years and it always produced blue smoke but oil level never went down between annual changes of conventional 15/40 diesel oil. Now have for 10 years anLS 5030c that I use t6 in and it has never smoked or used a drop of oil even before I started using t6 about...

Not sure why tires marked the same size would have different dimensions. Just changed a tire yesterday, I am 82

I use my 6 foot bucket on the front and 6 foot snow blower on the back of my LS 5030c (58hp front wheel assist) tractor that works quite well in our Manitoba Canada winters

An older jd 3020 and 6 or 8 foot bush hog for the small fields with saplings and an older 9 foot haybine, I have an international 1190 that is bullet proof for the other fields. I also have an older (70’s) versatile swather with 20 foot header and cab that I paid $500 for 10 years ago and still...

Connect a good battery direct to the starter, if it does not crank it is the starter

I have 2011 ls5030c and having trouble getting it in to fourth range, seems the lever will not go far enough aft, all other ranges ok. Is there a linkage adjustment for this problem?

Put a trailer ball on front of the tractor or loader! Much easier going forward

I would take a short term loan, pay it off then sell privately

Sounds like it is only running on one cylinder. Could try bleeding injector lines and be sure you are using winter fuel and filter is not restricted

Don’t use an auger just sharpen posts and rent a post pounder

Why not just buy where the price is lower
