does this work on x758 model?
@LukesJohnDeereGarage 9 күн бұрын
I imagine it would be somewhat different in the mounting and connection, but it could probably be made to work if you were creative. I’ve never tried it on one of those.

Great summary. I used it during my search. Now that I own one, something no one talks about is that decks are not readily available. And if you do find one that is not rusted completely through, they are very expensive. Otherwise you will put $300 plus into refinishing an old one, on top of what you will need to pay for it. Fair warning. I would have bought something else had I known this. My fault.

I purchased a $98.21 LED kit off Amazon. Super nice bright headlights, auto canceling turn signals after 30 seconds, emergency flashers, brake lights and pedal cover and horn. Super easy to install on my 2003 gas club car and I wired the kit to my ignition switch. That way nobody can just walk by and turn your lights on and kill the battery.

@jccrim81 5 ай бұрын
Great job. Nice tractor hack. I really like seeing people upgrade their stuff to make it more useful. Even better when it's DIY. Cheers. Question, is there any reduction in the hydraulic output from the diverter that would reduce the lift capacity of the front loader? I assume not as long as the grapple isn't operated simultaneously with the lift or if the diverter has a one way flow valve. Just wondering if there's a scenario where you're hauling big branches or logs in the Grapple if there will be any reduction in the lifting force due to the additional split hydraulic path.
@LukesJohnDeereGarage 5 ай бұрын
Thanks for the comment! When the diverter is deactivated, it blocks or isolates that hydraulic circuit from the system. So if you grab a log in the grapple and then let go of the diverter control, the hydraulic pressure in the diverter circuit retains itself. At least long enough to carry a load across the yard and still have full hydraulic pressure for the lift and curl. Closing or opening the grapple at the same time as lifting or lowering is about the same as curling while lifting.

@@chrisginoc The lift block alone won't change the ride quality. The HD springs will stiffen the ride in the back a good bit though. But with adults in the back it's almost a must. With the weight of a rear seat plus 3 or four people on the cart, the stock springs don't usually do well.

I had a 1995 455 for over 10 years till I gave it to my godson…I loved it dearly and I had replaced it with a semi commercial 400 series Kubota zero turn which was much faster in mowing but much less enjoyable operating…I missed my 455 so much I sold my new zero turn and bought an x495 with the bigger 1.1L Yanmar!..and to be honest, mowing with it for the first time was like meeting an old friend after a long time away from each other!..the x495 is an amazing tractor and I would say it’s noticeably more powerful than the 455…these series of tractors will always be the top of the line tractor in this category which no other manufacturer makes anymore so they are effectively in a class all their own!..I hope JD never stops making them!..
@LukesJohnDeereGarage 5 ай бұрын
The X495 is one of my favorites. Much more comfortable than the older 4X5 series, quieter, and plenty of power to spare. The only zero turn that is as fun to mow with as a diesel garden tractor is a diesel zero return in my opinion. 🤣 That’s why I got the John Deere 997.
