Step up to the LS XU series and you get 116 inches in a self leveling loader.

When I first looked at LS tractors I was considering an XU. I really liked the self leveling linkage on the loader. Since I already had a 100 HP New Holland felt the XU was more than I needed so bought the XR4046HC.

I hoped that LS would update the loaders to self leveling when they introduced the XR41XX series. My reason for upgrading to my present XR4155HC was more PTO HP and the 3rd remote. I’m more than happy with it.

As TSO notes, a bit more loader max. height would be nice but, if I need more height I get it with the New Holland. It has 5000 lb. lift to a bit over 12’ at pins.

The two different shades of blue actually look pretty close in that picture.

That picture was of my previous XR4046HC. The colors look quite different in person. The LS Blue has more green in it.

BTW, I have a Sherwin Williams recipe for an exact match for LS Blue. When I modified my grill guard, I took it to SW for a scan.





When I bought my XR415HC, I kept my grill guard from my XR4046HC. Didn’t make sense to have to start all over again.

Yeah I remember my LS machines look way later blue as well, just in that picture the two colors seem to match up quite a bit

Looking to pull the trigger on the 4155H, after a long research process, and finding this forum, y'all have put in a nutshell what I've learned scouring the Web for the last few months.
Thanks to all for your posts, 3rd function valves, lift heights, HP, and implement usage etc...
Feeling confident this is the right choice for my application.
Will keep ya posted.
