Question About Accessory Kits For 5083E Limited

[ChrisJD4320]

Hi ALL-
Years ago I traded my 2006 4320 OOS tractor on a new 2010 5083E Limited Cab tractor. The 5083E has a 563 loader. I have enjoyed upgrading my tractor over the years; more specifically the LVB kits that come from the sales department at my dealer. I do all the work myself. I have added the right hand door, buddy seat, power reverser modulator, rear wiper, wheel weights, radio and antenna, horn, air intake pre-heater, 'full" air-seat from the M Series, side-view mirrors, fire-extinguisher, metal JD toolbox, iPhone mount, and a few other odds and ends. My concern is since the 5083 and the 563 loader are now discontinued that these kits will be become sold-out and unavailable. I specifically want the front fenders for my 563 loader and the rear fenders for the tractor. I also would like to add the 4 additional work lights. A creeper gear and loader suspension would be nice too. Am I correct in assuming that I better get these kits while I can? I know Deere promises to keep parts around for a 'long" time, but does that include these LVB kits? I would hate to have to buy the components through parts at higher prices later or even worse not be able to get them at all.

My neighbor has some frt fenders for sale that were on his new JD 6115D/563 loader tractor for $350. I don't know if price is worthwhile or not??

I would have the same concern. Whole goods will not be serviced for obsolete models, unlike parts which will be available for a long time.
I would search ebay for each LVB part number you want and save the search. You might find a dealer trying to clear out obsolete stock.
With the search saved you will get an email if anything is listed.

I do not think loader suspension is model specific. I bought mine off ebay. Cost me more to have the dealer charge the accumulator with nitrogen than the kit.
