I just got an LX-4 cutter for my 2305 and used it the first time. It works great for cutting the pastures, but the ride was very rough. I ended up with 10 psi in the tires and a piece of plywood with some foam on it between the seat and the rubber cushions. That helped quite a bit.
I could mow using nearly the highest speed in the low range or at a low speed in the high range.
Which is easier on the trans? It seemed to put out a little more heat in low range, but that's just am impression.

Thanks in advance!

I hope that's 10 psi in the rear tires. You can easily push the front tires right off the rims at lower than about 20-22 psi in them.

Sounds like you're putting in a plug for the newer seat on the 2520 and probably the 2320.

Careful with that poor radiator mount. You can damage the radiator on rough ground.
