Thanks DT86 looks like you solved the mystery!

Shucks, all I did was poke around the internets while bored.

LS started selling tractors under their own name in 2011 in N.A. Before that they built tractors for several other companies and probably still do (I believe some of the NH boomers). One of the LS guys can probably say which ones for sure.

I'm pretty sure it was actually 2009.

The NH Boomer 50/40/35/30/25/20 and Case/IH Farmall B 50/40/35/30 models are LS products. Case and NH do use a different FEL that has quite a bit less lift capacity, and breakout force, but somewhat higher maximum height.

Well, I stand corrected. I know I looked at them at the farm show right after buying my CK30 in 2011. At that time, my dealer was selling off the remainder of his Landini stock because the new tractors made by Daedong were due so I know the switch from LS to Daedong must have been either the 2011 or 2012 model year.

Ok I went to the dealership today and on the side of the McCormick was the letters CX50H. So not sure if it is the only one they ever made or what! It's a 50 horse tractor but it is way to small physically for what I need it to do! So we bought a Kubota MX5100!! Only a thousand dollars different and the 5100 is a 2012 with 7 hours on it! New loader is ordered and should be here next week! Pretty excited. Lulich Equipment in Mason WI did an awesome job!! Very happy with the whole process!
