What are the differences between Dongfanghong LG axle and LN axle?
2 Answers
Dongfanghong LG axle and LN axle have the following differences: Differences in identification letters: Generally speaking, for tractors produced by first-tier large tractor manufacturers, it is possible to tell whether a tractor has a large or small axle by the letters in the tractor model. Differences in dimensions: Distinguishing tractor axle sizes by the dimensions of the rear axle may seem like a crude method, but it is quite reliable. By measuring the size of the rear axle housing and the diameter of the half-shafts, one can differentiate between large and small axle tractors. In agricultural machinery markets, it is common to see farmers using tape measures to measure the rear axle dimensions of various tractors.
I've been driving the Dongfanghong tractor for several years, and there's a significant difference in load capacity between the LG and LN axles. The LG features a lightweight design, making it ideal for flat farmland or light-duty transportation, such as hauling grain or making short-distance deliveries. It's fuel-efficient and stable, with smaller gears for quicker acceleration, but it can be bumpy on rough roads. The LN is more robust, constructed with reinforced steel materials, capable of handling heavy loads like agricultural machinery or construction materials. It's powerful but a bit slower. In terms of maintenance, LG parts are cheaper, and I can handle oil changes myself. The LN requires professional service; its oil seals are stronger but more expensive. Overall, for daily tasks, the LG is the choice, while the LN is more reliable for heavy-duty work. This distinction has made farming much easier for me.
