JD 2305 W/CC & R4
I finally got around to installing the cruise control kit on my 2305. It was pretty strait forward and works well, but there is a problem with the early 2305's. The "forward" pedal on the early models does NOT have the mounting provisions for the kit. The dealer ordered a replacement under warranty and it works just fine. If yours has one spring pin hole it's the early one. The later ones have a longer bushing and have two holes.
I have been experimenting with my new LX-4 and ended up with a fairly comfortable setup. (Our pastures are pretty rough) I run the fronts @ 10 psi and the rears @ 8 with 5 suitcase weights on the front and the loader removed. I use a piece of 1/4 plywood with a piece of foam rubber glued to it under the seat.
Thanks to whoever suggested building a wood support with casters to help install the cutter. GREAT idea!
