Looking back on it all do you wish you would have spent the extra money on the Kubota? LS scared me just because of the potential parts supply. I don't use my tractor a lot (50 hrs/ yr) but I want to feel confident that it will work when needed.

I have a LS XR 4140 cab tractor loader was week until I adjusted the loader safety valve 1 1/2 turns works like a champ now happy with the tractor

I too recently bought an LS XR4140. Thankfully I haven't run into any issues. I even tried my loader like you demonstrated on your last video and for now I can report that mine doesn't do that. Keep up the videos and hope you have better luck in the future.

My new holland has never had a wrench turned on it other than oil changes in 800 hours. My father in law has an LS and they are not the same tractor. The LS gears have alot smaller teeth on them you can tell it when shifting. LS also has a cheaper injection pump.

This is the 3rd year I have looked at a new tractor. It is video's like this that has kept me from getting one. 1993 Kubota with no problems if it is not broke don't fix it

I have moved LOTS of Crushed stone , fill, top soil and snow with my J. What exactly is your bucket doing? Mine works fine. I am looking for the video you said you made but have been unable to find it as of writing this.

Yes kubota!

You get what you pay for.I have 2 CASEih tractors that were built before new holand took CASEih over. I also have 9 year old JOHN DEERE. bought all three used and have not had the problems that many folks have with brand new knock off tractors. I will buy a used JOHN DEERE for the same money of a new other brand tractors and know I can always get good parts and service.I do have a GOOD JD DEALER close buy and that helps.

Is there a video that shows the leader problem?

30K for a brand new tractor and it's you that has to modify it to get the loader to work right.Pathetic!!. John Deere makes one of the best loaders out there.

We've got an LS 3025 and an XR4046. I did a review on the 4046 a few weeks back back kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9mEp6qBlsq9moE.html. While I don't have the loader/curl issue it is a bit slower lifting that I'm used to and I really noticed the difference yesterday when I hopped on my little Kubota 2710 to push some dirt around. I started buying LS tractors due to price and how much they built for other name brands. I'm happy so far and have to believe you got a tractor built by some goober with a hangover on the line that day. Thanks for the information and updates.

So what your saying is don't buy anything that says LS or New Holland??? New Holland used to be a name brand in forage equipment! Now it's another cheaply made replica of a real tractor with the motor being the linkage between the front end and the rear end!!!!! Do yourself a favor trade it in before it loses all it's value.

im not going to buy ls tractor

At the rate these tractors break while still new you'll prolly be living at the dealers until uyou dump the LS. Just sayin...

I was lookin at ls. Was lol.

I guess you haven't had any more issues?

Jd has what they call regen on the loader valve anything heavy including an empty bucket needs to be dumped with the valve to the farthest right position. That stops wobble bucket. Shitty design but that's the same thing my jd does unless you dump it the farthest right it will go.

Until I've got the xr3135 and it doesn't have any of the problems you've been talking about about your 40 whatever for dinner or something
