5085e questions

[sacarmic]

So I am getting loose on a 5085e (upgrading from a 5303). Still haven't decided between cab and open air. I do have a couple of questions.

Is the DEF only on the 15+ models? The 13 & 14 still have the exhaust filters though, correct? How often do you change/clean?

On the cab model is there any upgrade to put 3pt high arms lift controls on the back fender? I know the M series has then. I haven't seen it on the E series, but there is a knock out hole on their fenders where it might go.


Thanks,
Scott

Haven't looked at the E and M series that closely but they might use the same fenders. To get the rear hitch controls would require that you have electric/hydraulic control valves. Not as simple as just adding a switch.

Also has anyone installed rear work lights on this unit? IS the wiring already there to run my own lights or do I need their kit? IT looks ike it just come with the lights and wire pigtails to attach them.

Thanks Scott

The wiring is in place for the work lights but you still have to add the switch to the console. I added work lights to my cab using the Deere kit simple install as I recall.
