Are you planning to do much bush hogging? There have been a few instances of guys doing bush hogging whose JD CUT tractors have stopped dead in their tracks. What happens is that some tall brush catches on wiring underneath the tractor and tears it loose. You might do yourself a favor and crawl under your machine to check for loose or dangling wires and tie 'em up with nylon ties if you find any. My 4310 came with all the wires tied tightly up but some are getting shipped without. It may be a dealer prep sort of issue, I dunno. Easy to check for though. ....

Ken, doesn't JD make a shield kit for this tractor? I think either you or someone here made a post about that. Still got the info. & part #? I am thinking about one for mine for when I get a rotary cutter. One more cut and the MMM is coming off of mine. Can't wait! It does a great job but I hate dragging that thing around. ....

Yeah, JD makes what they call a "Rental Upgrade Kit" for these machines. Part of it includes a skid plate that protects the filter and maybe other areas underneath the machine. The problem is that the skid plate is only available as part of a $1k kit. It wouldn't be so bad if other kit components were useful, but most of the other stuff in the kit is useless. Who wants a C-range lockout? I forget the part number and will have to look it up. ....

The rental upgrade kit is definitely a JD kit. My dealer looked it up and gave me the price. Unfortunately the info is on my other computer. I'll look it up by monday and post it here if you don't find it first. ....

Chief, I started a new thread about the skid plates. My CRS is acting up again - the price is less than $400 not $1000. One guy got his along with the Xtra-Armor kit and he had paid more than $1k, so that's what I was thinking. Anyway at $400 that's probably not too bad. ....

Don't feel bad boys as when you buy a TLB110 unit they also need to purchase the skid plate to keep from damaging the hydraulic lines under the tractor. ....
