Want to do more than just mow grass and move snow with your X700??  You need a Front End Loader!

With the introduction of the Signature series garden tractors in 2013, John Deere removed the ability to mount the very popular 45 Loader.  Essentially pushing you to the larger/heavier 1025R (or larger) frame tractors.  For a couple years now, L&M Concepts has offered custom mounts to allow you to install a 45 Loader, but John Deere stopped making the 45 Loaders in 2012 and used ones are very hard to find which is driving the cost up.

The John Deere 1 series tractors (1025R, 1023E) have a loader similar in size to the 45 Loader called the 120R that you can still buy new.  L&M Concepts saw this as an opportunity to see if they can be adapted to the X700.  After significant design and testing, we’ve demonstrated that it is possible!

We are excited to offer a 120R mount kit for 2013+ X700s.  There will be two versions available.  One for the two wheel steer tractors and one for the all wheel steer tractors.

If you are like many that don’t need the larger frame tractors, you’ve bought the X700 Series tractors.  With the cost of these machines, you understand the importance of maximizing your machine’s versatility. Our custom fabricated mounts offer a seamless solution, allowing you to easily attach a John Deere 120R Loader to your tractor. Enjoy the convenience of enhanced functionality while maintaining the integrity of your equipment. This unique addition empowers you to tackle a variety of tasks with unparalleled efficiency.

Engineered, Fabricated and Tested in the USA

These 120R Sub-Frame mounts have been designed and fabricated in house to fit your X700 perfectly.  Fully TIG welded and powder Coated Semi-Gloss Black to match the John Deere frame color.

With these mounts the 120R loader can be installed and removed in just a couple minutes – just like the 1 Series tractors.

The complete kit comes with everything needed to mount a 120R loader.

What 120R loader do you need?

All 120R loader frames are the same.  The difference is in the buckets and the mounts.

  • The 120R can be mounted to the 1 series tractors and some of the 2 series tractors.
    • Our recommendation is that you buy a 120R loader with the 1 series tractor mounts.  Specifically the horizontal mounts and vertical masts with all the hardware.
    • You will only utilize the vertical masts and hardware.  It is cheaper to buy the full mount kit with the loader than just the vertical masts from John Deere.
  • The 120R can be ordered with a 49″ bucket and a 53″ bucket.
    • We recommend the 49″ bucket.  We’ve been doing our testing with the 53″ bucket, but the 49″ would be a better fit (and it is lighter so you can have more lifting capacity)

Requirements and Recommendations

  • It is highly recommended (almost required) that you install the  THRV pressure release valve (BW15044 – 4WD/AWD, BW15043 – 2WD).   This valve protects the transaxle when utilizing the loader and you hit something while your tires are not able to slip because of the added weight.  These valves came with the 45 loaders when delivered new.  This valve requires you replace your neutral/freewheel lever (M146148) because the valve is taller.
  • It is recommended that you shim your hydraulic pressures to 1225-1250psi
  • It is REQUIRED that you run rear ballast – 250lbs minimum,  300+ recommended.
  • It is recommended that you have a lockout valve installed on the SCV to minimize flow to the rock shaft (deck cylinder) when using the curl function of the loader.  It speeds up the response of the curl.  Many tractors already have this valve installed because of a snow blower or blade (front quick hitch attachments).

    I have the X739 w/ snow blower, mower, bagger and an Innovative Tractor Attachments grapple I use for firewood and getting logs to my sawmill. Grapple is great but can’t lift logs to deck height on mill so I had to winch them up ramps. I was considering getting a large subcompact (Kubota or LS) but justifying $30k for my hobbies was tough. Been watching the other loader options out there for my X739 and their designs and quality were less than desired. I found Mark on YouTube, saw he was fairly local to me and after one day of seeing his video and talking with him directly my tractor was at his shop within the week! Of course I also had him add 3 pt, PTO and the joystick. My 1st evening I moved 5 loads of dirt to level out ground under lean to, used forks I picked up to lift a 16” x 9’ red pine on my mill and lifted my son up in the bucket to “leaf blow” my grandsons airplane off the shed (not OSHA approved). I am a newbie at this and Mark has been amazing at explaining and showing the “hows and whys” of what makes sense for me. His passion and expertise is evident in everything he does from concept, design, fabrication, product testing to sales. Doing all of this on top of the business and marketing side is an amazing story on how to turn a passion into a business! I will continue working with Mark on more upgrades- yes Mark, we’ll be adding the grapple and getting your front dethatcher bracket soon!

    I had Mark put on a loader (with the LMC 120R sub-frame), a three-point hitch and then I decided to go with The joystick option, which I completely love! Along with a few extra odds and ends. Mine was a x739 In this world, it’s hard to find someone who is as passionate, kind, and just over overall does what he says he’s going to do and truly has the knowledge to be able to do it right. In my case living in Wisconsin, I had to have my tractor deliver to his house so I was a little nervous as anyone would be not knowing really too much about him or his company. I can now say with complete honesty, he’s the real thing, this guy knows what he’s doing!!!! if you’re thinking of working with him on a project, do not hesitate. You can tell he loves what he does. I hear it and see it in the way the parts are shipped or installed at his shop as mine were. He goes after what needs to be done and he gets it done right with professionalism and integrity, Mark took pictures and sent me text every single day to show me how everything was going. I cannot speak highly enough about his company. Thank you again, Mark. God bless you & your family.

    I did a DIY install. Mark's instructions are very thorough and allowed this first time tractor mechanic to upgrade an X739. Now I have a loader that I don't have to manhandle to put on and take off.

    Mark was great to work with. His passion and technical expertise made adding a R120 loader to my X739 a fun experience. He step me through what I need, informed me on the progress of manufacturing and did the installation seamlessly. I have 30 years experience in product development/engineering and Mark checks all the boxes. The experience with the loader has exceeded my expectations and increased my capabilities tenfold.
