Hello All. Tried to search this subject, but search option wouldn't allow time to enter subject. So, I'm hear a new noise while traveling. Crawled under while NOT traveling and shook the from prop. shaft near the front cv joint. Seems loose to me. Who's performed repairs to the prop...

It's been a while since I've posted on this great forum. Just wanted to share that my 2011 RTV 900 XT continues to support our farm every day. Still on the original tires and battery. Have replaced rear u-joint once and have had some issues with the water thermister. Folks for a piece of...

Hello All! It"s been a good while since I've participated in this great forum. Retirement has elevated my workload. During this past summer my RTV overheated a few times. Some of you may remember previous similar issued that occurred on my boat. This time instead of replacing the thermister...

Hi All, You may recall my displeasure in premature u-joint degradation. Well, yesterday I started replacement of the four rear u-joints. Only the inner joints showed signs of wear, to the point of the cups were missing pieces. The outer u-joints were in good shape, but I replaced them...

Well the wife informed me that the left rear wheel area was squeaking on our 2011 RTV 900 XT. Jack the rear end up and promptly identified that the inner u-joint was severely worn for one with only 750 hrs run-time. New one cross and cups from the local Kubota dealer is $98. Ah, that's just...

Hi All, this subject doesn't fit here except I have quite a bit of faith in my fellow forum members. So here it goes. I'm trying to figure out the better of the big three for a one-ton 4-wd crew cab diesel chassis cab. I'm generally a GM guy with three of them setting outside. Here is my...

Happy day to all of you! My wife was using the RTV Friday moving cattle. She sent a text stating that a tire was flat on the RTV. Turns out the right rear had a sidewall split on the OEM ATV style tire. So I loaded it up on my 25 ft dovetail flatbed trailer (yes the trailer was a little...

Seems kike a good while since see any post from Doc. Hope he is doing well. Search party may be necessary.

I realize that these comments will get some eye rolls from our friend up north, but freezing rain, sleet, and snow are not on Arkansas's well to do list. We lost electricity at about 4 am Friday and just got electricity back at 9:30 am today (Saturday). I do fairly well without electricity...

Well I must say that our Creator has taken very good care of us this year in the rain relative to last year. The summer has produced much forage. August and September has been on the dry side with grass turning towards brown in color. Last night and today we have/are receiving a needed slow...

Need help with diagnosing RTV 900 XT coolant temperature indicatiion issues. Bordercollie graciously sent shop manual excerpts for he 2005 model. The temperature guages are different relative to wiring. If any members have a shop manual for the RTV 900 XT, I would appreciate information...

Merry Old Year to All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Back in the summer you may recall my woes with the terrible drought. I stated that one day the drought will be just a bad memory. My place received ~6" of snow on Christmas day with other parts of the state receing as much as 16" of snow. Today...

I noticed this on ebay tonight for $54. For those that do not have the high rise, here's an economical option. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kubota-RTV-snorkel-/190772845641?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2c6af29c49&vxp=mtr

The warranty ended this week on my 2011 RTV 900 XT. Been trying to correct the erroneous indicated fuel level, first by replacing the fuel level sensor (float) a few weeks ago. So I loaded up the XT and delivered it to the dealer Monday for the last warranty repairs. Dealer found the gauge to...

I thought I'd see if this thing is working. Three days without any post? I guess were all busy! Hope all are doing well!

Peak temperature on the east side of the house under the protection of the porch was 108.3 degrees-F today. I speculate that eggs would've fried on black pavement today. Everyone, PLEASE take care of yourself and others during these hot times. If you must work in these extreme...

Whoooo, it's dry, hot, and too early for both. We've experienced no recordable precipitation in May. Grass is brown and very little hay has been produced. Any prayers, rain dances or other magic (Ha, Ha!) would be appreciated. I certainly am not interested in selling my good herd of purebred...

Someone once suggested on this forum that a beeper could be installed in-line with the parking brake liight. This installation would warn the driver when the parking brake is still applied while the key is turned on. Well, I can't seem to remember to either look at the light or check the...

Yesterday while cleaning out my unfinished shop, I elected to pull my inoperable JD 2640 tractor from the shop to the barn. Tractor was previously used to drive an irrigation pump. I'd let it run for about 3 hours when I felt the need to check on the tractor. When I arrived, the tractor had...

Whoooo! These RTVs will hide and hold the mud. I just spent about an hour hosing my RTV 900 XT down. There is crevises all over that hide and hold the mud, manure, and grass. Certainly worth spending extra time to hose them off. The skid pan for the front axle gear box was the worst to...
