Finding a used GSLP, 60"

[jenkinsph]

I agree that a 5' lpgs is the correct size for the Max 28. You want one you can pull without bogging down and spinning your wheels. Under the right conditions you will find a good five foot lpgs is all you can deal with.

Thks for the input to all.

I will be getting the 60" unit, was my fist choice, now to find one at a good price.

Anyone got a 60" unit for sale... in expensive.

used LPGSers are very few and far between. ...the general tractor public knows very little to nothing about them.

No stinkin' doubt about that. I have a CL app on my phone that auto-searches "constantly" and while it's a hard term to search, I had multiple searches going in the entire state of MI for months with.........nothing. My wife ended up finding the one I got in northern WI. Guy used it 3 times. I saved only $300-ish, but also didn't pay shipping or tax.

I am finding the used units to be just a few hundred under new pricing, same as you, and then there is shipping from who knows where.

I have located a local shop, sells LandPride and does repairs in just about any tractor, so it might be a good idea to stay local.


Thanks for all of the comments.

Ok... So we continue !
After searching for a while for a used LPGS, I decided to buy new.
I looked at a lot of them and decide one of two look good.
Either the BEFCO or the Home Pride; both appear to be equal except for the weight, the BEFCO weighs in at 550+Lbs. and the Land Pride come in at 525.

Then I conpared the price... Both could be purchased at near the same price but there is the shipping !
The BEFCO's shipping cost from four dealers came in at $500-$600 but when I rechecked the local dealer for shipping of the Land Pride I was told it was included... GREAT! Place an order !

Three days ago I ordered the Land Pride, with rippers, it should be here in a few days and we will see just how easy it will be.
Also, I need to order a rear hydraulic setup from, Fit Rite Hydraulics - fitritehydraulics.com, MtnView !

Congratulations on getting your LPGS Scrambler82!

The top and tilt (I got mine from Brian - MtnViewRanch) makes a huge difference, all the adjustment you could want, all while sitting in the seat.

Unfortunately his products are popular and he makes them himself, so you may need some patience.

I've got a 6 foot LPGS on my CK27 and have encountered no problems yet, but would get a 5 footer if I could do it again. Probably.
