john deere la115

"Inherited" a JD LA115 riding mower from good friend after he passed. Only had 200 hours on it, but it was in really rough shape. Mower blades were seized, flat tires, ran like (excrement). Blades looked like he mowed rocks and stumps with it. Cleaned it up, tore apart the mower deck and to my...

I have almost 200 hours on the LA115 , is there anything I can do to prolong its lifespan or am I playing the waiting game knowing that some time in the future its going to crap out and the tractor will stop. I had the transmission drive belt changed 2 years ago. I understand the transmission...

I am looking at selling my JDLA115 and just buying a replacement mower; and a separate walk behind Yamaha snow blower from a Canadian Yamaha power equipment dealer as they are not sold here. SO I have the following: JDLA115 with almost 200 hours New Briggs and stratton fuel pump installed...

For those of you that have the 44 inch snow caster for your mules. I have to deal with heavy wet snows and plow banks at times and hopefully the last set of repair parts will be it for a quite while. After installing the the new guide pulley and the belt retainer I ran the snow caster...

Well, after some work its fixed again. I found the Gates A116 series one V belts for the driven belt via an Amazon automotive partner and the 2 belts came in two days from Indianapolis. The belts with shipping were $42 and change and arrived in excellent condition. The guide V pulley was bad...

NOT happy, JD wants $120.00 and change for a lower snow blower belt on the 44 inch units!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can buy 4 of them from NAPA or Mcmaster Carr for the same money. Its off to NAPA with the belt in the morning and I have to see if I can get it in...

I wadded a 144 and change on replacement starter in the LA115 as it croaked. The Sun Gear broke in half, the c ring fell off and the spring and cap fell off after I pulled the starter off. Wait it gets better!! So anyway, I paid for shipping to the house from the JD warehouse when I was over...

I have a question about my LA115 and its mower deck. It seems as if the mower is doing very little to adjust the cutting height unless its at 2 3/4" or above. When I raise the deck all the way up to 4 inches the tractor makes a lot of noise unsure if the transmission cooling fan has something...

I added 4 gallons of windshield washer fluid to ballast the rear tires. It is a little less than 32 pounds per tire with the spillage/bubbling from the tire filling valve to the funnel and garden hose. It is a night and day differerence with how it operates with the 2 suitcase weights and my...

Good evening fellow board members, I have an issue with my LA115 and snow chains. The chains I was given were purchased when I bought the tractor and would have been on the tractor last march but they mounted the mower instead of the snow blower and chains- (which I specifically asked...

I've seen in this forum that a front dethatcher is far superior to a pull behind, but I can't seem to find anywhere if the Deere LA115 allows for a front dethatcher. They show a pull behind, which apparently doesn't work very well. I like the idea of dethatching, then mowing over it and bagging...

My MIL just got a JD LA115 from Lowes the other day, and I'm concerned about it because of what I've been hearing about them. I am the one who will be doing the routine upkeep and maintenance on it, and my sons are the ones who will use it to mow her 3/4 acre yard. Any concerns I should be aware...
