-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So I am probably ruining an opportunity for an early retirement, but I just have to know if anybody else has wondered this. Today I was getting frustrated trying to level the deck on my JD LX277 AWS. I have one of...

I welcomed my first born son into the world on 6-7-14. Jacob Callen is his chosen name. He was 8lbs 7oz and 21 3/4 inches long. Talk about a life changing experience! I find myself just staring at him, laughing at his facial expressions as he sleeps. Ah sleep, what is that? I used to know...

I have question regarding the hydro on my LX277 AWS. Everything works great on it, however when I am using the reverse pedal and let off, it doesn't stop instantly, and the pedal is slow to come back to the neutral setting. If I don't get on the forward pedal right away, it kind of coasts...

Our Springer Spaniel was Baxter. He was always a loyal companion. Unfortunately after 14 years we had to put him to sleep in January . Our Chocolate Lab is Remington. Although he only gets called that when he is getting into trouble. Normally it is just Remmi . They were best friends

Here is my Chocolate Lab Remington giving me a high five on going green!

Hello all. I am posting this for my neighbor. He has a Cub Cadet LTX1050VT. I believe it is around a 2010. It has the B&S 24hp V-Twin. The problem is that when moving the throttle lever on the dash, the engine throttle moves very little. We checked to make sure the cable is moving, and it...

Well after a lot of reasearch and searching, I finally bagged myself a Deere. I got a 2000 LX 277 all wheel steer. It has the 17hp Kawasaki air cooled motor that purrs like a kitten with 377 hours on it. I am not sure if that is considered a lot. It has a 42" deck, although I was hoping for a...

Hello all. I am going to look at a 2000 LX277 all wheel steer in the morning. It has 370 hours, and 42c deck. I have seen video of it running today, and it appears to run good. It isn't clean as it was put away dirty, but from what I can see by my inspection of the video, no evidence of any...

Hello all. I realized today that in my quest to find a mower, I have been avoiding any model with all wheel steer (i.e. LX 277 specifically). This is mainly because I am a firm believer in the K.I.S.S. Mentality (keep it simple stupid). But i really know very little about them. Are they more...

Hello all, I realize there are some variables here, but I am trying to figure out what a dealer would have paid on a trade in, in an attempt for me to figure out what I am going to offer for purchasing it. It is a 98 LX188 with a 48" deck. I would guess from looking at it that it was in good...

Okay, I have been doing a lot of research on a 98 LX188. I was just about ready to pull the trigger on it, and I came across another deal that has got me thinking. I found a 2013 D130 with 3 hrs on it, for $550 off of list. Now I know that this is not the frame/drivetrain that the LX is, but...

Hello to all. I am new to the site, but have been reading a lot on here lately. I am looking a getting my first John Deere, after many years of mowing with subpar mowers. I have just under an acre, mostly wide open. The only hill I have Is in the front going from the road, through the drainage...
