What did you do on or to your LS Tractor today?

Is it mounted to the 3pt? Or do you have forks back there to lift the Jobox?

3 point, I welded some channel iron to the box and installed 3 point pins. The build video link in my original post is fixed and working now if you would like to view it.

Wrapping up six years and still on my original factory battery. Still cranks quick and easy too.

That's pretty awesome.

Yep my Workmaster 40 was built in summer 2019 so it's almost 5.5 years old and it has the original battery. And the battery has been through below zero cold snaps multiple times.

How long is the warranty?

I have a few days of brush hogging coming up so I greased the tractor and loader, and decided to check the front axle lube level and it was high!
This was really strange to me since the last few times it was right at the top "full" mark, then it hit me. I believe here or on a LS FB page someone mentioned it happening to them and the issue was water got in the axle. So I pulled the lower drivers side drain plug for a split second and it was pure gear lube, pulled the passenger side drain plug (The side the blue vent cap is on) and got about a cup of water before gear lube came out!
So I'll be changing the gear lube out once I get enough to do so, it takes 1.7 gal.

How did the water get in there?

Possibly driving in high water and a seal leaking?

So how do you suppose water got in there ?

No it's never been driven through any water and it's stored under a lean to most of the time. Only way it got in is the breather cap let water in while it was outside and/or maybe while I was rinsing it off after using to brush hog last month in super dusty conditions.
