    Ok. I have the L4600 as well with the BH92 as well. They install a subframe mount that i was also told does not obstruct the 3 pt. The Bh92 come off with little difficulty.

    R4 Tires on lawn

    Ive read many threads on the R4 tires. Im purchasing a L 4600 with loaded tires. I will not be driving on the lawn all the time but if i keep it in 2WD and make shallow turns on a dry lawn do you think it wll do much damage?

    Hydrostatic "slipping"?

    I'm real new to tractors but from reading some forums I heard of some similar issues with HSts. Some one else had a issue with the HST regulator bypassing fluidvwhen in certain pedal positions.
