It covers tire size differences, added spacers and chains, cab seat and radio upgrades, and a direct before/after listen to the transmission noise that plagued the 2610. Good for LX2610/2620 owners curious about real-world differences and the noise fix.
Posted by the Mannisto Cay channel, an owner-operator documenting their own tractor trade-in and daily use rather than a dealer or reviewer.
Yes. The owner says the transmission is much, much quieter on the LX2620, with only a little bit of noise compared to the loud howl on the 2610.
Not bad at low RPM in lower gears, but in high gear the transmission noise gets much more pronounced and is loud enough that gear defenders are recommended.
The 2610 had bigger tires for ground clearance; the 2620 uses standard tires about 1.5 inches shorter in total height, so spacers and chains were added.
It has a new seat with nicer material (not heated), a radio with Bluetooth, a power button on the third function control, and dressed up control levers.
