While examining ring gear and pinion gears I compared parts to LA.

"After replacing bearings on several Ls, LAs, had to replace some on 44 LI recently. Makes a 3rd gear (road gear) speed of 10 MPH.Two front head lights, and rear facing red marker light on left fender (only one headlight for "L").It seems that most LIs still actually used the tube frame.) LI uses the LA solid frame, while L uses a tube frame (however, there are numerous exceptions during production.( 1941 and later, from many sources, including parts books) If anyone else has an early LI, let me know what the tag says, please! Today all are usually considered LIs.īut like everything I have seen for the LI there is a contradiction to this, tractor number 625000, and 626919 (1938 model year) have a tags that say "IL" (this means it is an LI). But these versions were so popular that the separate designation of "LI" was made for the 1941 model year.

Before than, the tractors still used the "L" serial number tag and were considered normal Ls, with industrial options.


See serial number lists for the LIs, here. Click on the picture to see more pictures of LIs. This is a picture of an LI that was in the middle of a group. Industrial version of the John Deere Model "L"
