Just got it setup. Definitely an improvement with no noticeable flop. Here is a picture. I didn't realize that the flow valve is free flow in the curl position so there is no impact on curl speed.... Bonus!
I dumped my Mahindra 3616 for this new LS XR4145 Hydro ROPS. Hope it holds up well. Glad to see there is a forum for the LS line. The only mods I plan on making right away are:
1: Cup holders
2: The dealer said there is not a factory 3rd spool option yet. I do not want the second rear...
