That's the only reason why I don't have them on the 2000. I would spend as much time stopping to change them as I would Mowing. My land and Area has very few Slopes and level. They would stay down. On the 5103 there a pita to move so they stay up. If the tractor was a couple of inches higher they would end up staying down. You wouldn't be able to get it in the garage. The Garage Door is 3 story Brick load bearing.
