I figure it would be easier to find a nice 420 due to more being produced and no SLS for someone that does not carry loads. The SLS works great on mine, after a full rebuild including the high side hose, pump, and accumulators.

Hold out for the best example of that model and spend more up front. I did the opposite more than once, not smart.



My SDL has power recline in the rear.
