This is a better place for this post.

I like the VTwin Kawi motor in the LX288, but prefer the 2 spindle 42C deck over the 48C or bigger.

The basic build, frames, and way the deck hooks up should be the same for 266, 277, 288. I've never heard of anyone doing this.

Is it possible? Do you think Deere would do it?

I have the LX277. It is a great machine.

However, I am having problems with the Freedom 42 mulching deck that will hopefully be resolved (in another post). You should not have any issues with the 42c deck. In hindsight I am thinking I should have gone with the 42c, then I would not have one problem with the tractor.

The owners manual advises NOT to change transmission fluid but to top it off during service.

Check out www.deere.com they have owners manuals for current models posted (if you have not already)

Good luck !!
