Top hours on you're LS!

[Jwebbfedex]

Ok guys, I'm still looking for reasons to either buy or not buy an LS 4047, can you post the number of hours on your LS tractor? List any major problems you've had along with the hours. I would love to see high hours with minimal problems. Thanks

220h r4041h not a hiccup. It's the same as every machine, maintain it, treat it right, and love it, it will give you many hours of smooth operation. Take the plunge you wont regret it! We have all done our research and ended up with ls. Good luck!

R3039H -- 186 hours. Fuel tank developed a pinhole leak. LS sent me a new tank. No other issues.

Ive got 257 hrs on my R3039H. Other than bending a stabilizer link, she's been a little mule! Coming up on the 300 hr service.

I've got 250hrs on my R3039 and had one problem with the pto solenoid witch was promptly fixed by the dealer. Really like the tractor!

If you like it, buy it. LS owners here on TBS and likely everyone else have experienced few to none defects with their tractors. This doesn't necessarily guarantee that you will get a defect free one as every tractor, automobile and truck manufacturer has the occasional odd ball that has some problems. Having a good dealer and warranty is what separates the good from the bad. What few problems (broke the seat bracket due to rough riding - new improved bracket by dealer: Broke the drawbar attachment bracket trying to pull out a loaded 14 yard dump truck - new improved bracket and support by dealer, broke the front drive shaft trying to pull up a stump during which I broke the links on a 3/8" grade 70 chain - replaced by dealer. All the problems I have had with my LS have been mostly due to abuse but the LS dealer fixed all without charge.

If you have a good dealer that you like that is selling LS, then go for it, you wont be sorry.
