Don't have an LS, but I use a smaller backhoe on my 5000 series Deere and it works just fine. You will likely need to adapt the subframe to fit your larger tractor

If you can make a mounting to fit, a smaller BH works well on a larger heavier tractor.
Back before we could afford a real hoe, we had a little 3pt hoe from a 18 hp tractor that we used on our big category II 3pt JD. On the little tractor I alway worried it would tear up the tractor. On the big one, there was no chance that little hoe would hurt the tractor, and so it turned out to work real well. It didn't bounce around so much and that was probably good for the BH as well. I did have to remember to turn the draft control off.
