GC1700 Missing Lever?

[Sarbatche]

There’s a spot for lever on the right side of the 1st gen GC1700s that has no decal. Is that where the rumored power beyond kit lever was supposed to go?

On my GC2400 that is where the "Cruise Control" lever is which holds the forward pedal position until you push the brake or reverse pedals.

same on my 2010 GC2400.
Didn't the 1700 series have a dash mounted cruise control rod to engage it?

That slot does not exist on the newest models GC1723E/25M.

The cruse control is a little rod you push down on the dash.

That is just it... Rumored..... When I search for the "kit" by part number, I always windup with reference to the JD power beyond kit....

I believe that's where the eject lever was gonna go.

turbo boost, adds extra 100 HP just like the big tractors

I'd prefer that to an eject lever!
