New mirrors finally mounted and air ride system

[LS Tractor Owner]

I finally got around to ordering some mirrors and getting them installed. I was originally going to use magnets and put them on the loader frame, but decided to put them up high on the canopy. Worked out nicely. I get a full view of the area right behind the tires.



Oh, and added an air ride system..... poor man's version..... it actually works!

Your air ride is even the right color.

Do you have any problems with the mirrors vibrating too much?

 

[LS Tractor Owner]

Surprisingly, no. They have a mild vibration at idle, but up over 1500, none at all. The only time they shake is over really bumpy ground, but I can still make out what I'm seeing.

That air seat idea is genius. My mirrors tend to catch on everything. I have thought about removing them.

Another added feature is if you need to take a break.... you could have a game of one on one with somebody!:laughing:

I went with golf cart mirrors and magnets. Work great do not vibrate much at all.

Holy Cow. I thought I was going crazy. I knew I posted in this thread. Then I searched and found I posted to this thread in LS Tractors. You are messing with folks minds here.:thumbdown:

Nice looking set up on the mirror installation. I still wonder why they aren't at the very least, offered as an option on a new tractor. Maybe they are. I haven't bought a new tractor in about ten years. They weren't even a consideration back then.

I think on the new cab tractors, the mirrors are standard. I haven't seen any mirror options on open station tractors. I really like how mine worked out. Took a while to get used to them, but the sure come in handy!

Interesting. In Europe, LS tractors do come with a mirror on the left side as standard on ROPS models. Well, pretty much all South Korean tractor come with the mirror as standard.

We end up taking it off because often it will get destroyed by brush or by working on orchards or vineyards.
