Sounds good Bordiecollie, I should've added I have foam marker kit mounted on left wheel making for 25 lbs additional weight on that side, proably creating a problem where you don't have one. Also I don't have that low crown weed you do but have cuckleburr and others that bud low after first...

bordercollie, I too have that very weed wiper you have and use it in rough pasture ground as you do and this calls for variable height control. I have limestone croppings too clear in the knob pastures. My main thought is that the cyl will not maintain the same height side to side unless running...

Razor, Mine is a 2011 1100 and operates just like you describe. I too would prefer it stay where ever i release it. I have been meaning to check the return spring to see if it can be soften without affecting operation in other ways. Let us know if you resolve before I can get to it. Down in...

Just picked up from dealer this am. he changed the rad cap and housing (the mid one)), reinstalled thermostat, flushed rad and installed antifreeze mix. I run down to store and back reaching mid way on gage but with a 52 deg day could not tell. I did seem to notice a quicker cool back when fan...

Hello Hersheyfarm, Am I understanding this that the fan will kick on and off at temps above normal operating. I will tap mind and check this when i get a chance. It is in kubota shop now. The only thing they are doing is change the middle rad cap housing. It will distort at high temps (another...

Just an update on my cooling issue. Grabbed my infrared temp gauge on a 70 degree day and went for approx 6 mile ride to get temp gage to 1/16 th inch of red zone. Quickly stopped raised bed and checked cooling system temps at various points. Most points read from 220-228 degrees except yellow...

Hello Oldhat, Sounds like you had a wonderful trip, I hope so. I checked on price of 1 x 3 steel tubing - 94.00 bucks a stick. This doesn't make economic sense on top of the other logistics in you building one for me. Went to Bota dealer ordered one at descent price 190 bucks. But sure...

You all bring some good points. I moniter the coolant level and do add a little oh every 2-3 weeks which is straight antifreeze. So maybe I need to add water, had'nt thought about. Am thinking of removing rad and doing a internal cleaning and flow check. I changed thermostat this spring, no...

Thanks for the hi intake reply. We will wait until you return. Have a wonderful trip. I would tank up with no 1 diesel if you can find it, will get back part of your performance. Roger

Yea, Bordercollie, I have read your flex o lite thead. Do you think there is a significant improvment? I need additional cooling. My oem fan seems to work great coming on before reaching mid point on gauge. Also keep in mind this is 1100 with all different radiator mounting. Thanks, the pictures...

I have a 2011 model. i have tweaked many things for improved performance such as: adj throttle cables, both pedal and pump cables to obtain lower idle and higher wot speed. Did not touch fuel pump or screw. then readj servo linkage for better neutral. This smoothed shifting, just completely stop...

Hello Two Guns, I had 780+ hours when I changed to the 1100. Only problem or should say failure with the 900, I stuck a stick through rad in woods in reverse. Guards somtimes fail to work in reverse. Rogerw

First, I am anew member. Been following threads for years and must say great forums are made of great people always eager to help. I really enjoy this sometimes even as a pastime. I have owned 2510 mule, then rtv 900 w/metal top, windsheild and made doors and back window. Used this rig very...
