    RTVX-1120D Aluminum Rims

    Ohio Pawpaw Grower, I like the polished aluminum rims because I don't drive in many muddy sloppy conditions. In fact, if I could get a set of 4 for a good price, I'd scoop them up. I'd like to have a second set to use for different seasons/conditions. I've been looking for a set that I can...

    Kubota recall

    I called the dealer with my model and serial number. He called back in about half an hour and said my RTV was on recall. He said he could probably get it done in about 3 weeks, so I scheduled it to be done around the first of May. Thanks Tailrotor for the heads up on this recall and thanks to...

    Kubota recall

    I have a 2013 RTV X1120D. Is it included in the recall?

    Hand Throttle

    I paged back in the price list and when the X900 is first listed it shows the D902 engine listed in all three versions (General, Worksite, and Camo). I'm thinking the only way to determine the difference, if there is one, between the two kits is to have them or their installation instructions...

    I think the link for the price list and part numbers in my last post works if you want to check it out.

    Hand Throttle

    tfdr1, I found a Kubota whole goods price list effective June 2015, and it shows two throttle kits for an X900. V5241 listed with AUX hydraulic pump $99, and V5245 listed with power broom $146. Besides the price, it doesn't give a difference. I tried entering the link to the price list, but...

    Tires and Wheels

    Sure, why not! Make use of every available accessory and space with a little ingenuity and mechanical craftsmanship. And one of the good things about what you did is that you can remove that rack when it isn't needed. Keeps from cluttering the cab also. Good job!

    Tires and Wheels

    VA1100, It looks like you have a nice rack on the front for carrying chainsaw, tools, etc when the dump bed is full of wood. The RTV really handles a load well. It sits pretty well balanced with the load. Your photo is a good example of the work horse capability of the Kubota RTV.

    Tires and Wheels

    I was adding the 2" gain from the rim diameter (12" to 14") to the 2" gained going from 25 to 27 and that's how I got 4" total. So even though the rim size increased, the outer height of the tire is still 27", basically a 2" clearance gain. Your tire the sidewall is shorter than a 27x11-12. I...

    Tires and Wheels

    I read your other post. So when you got the tires and wheels you also had spacers installed? I assume that was done to help with the no rub issue. How wide were the spacers? You increased wheel and tire by 2" each, nut measure shows you only gained 2" clearance total. Own would think...

    Tires and Wheels

    VA1100, thanks for the picture and description for tires and wheels. You increased all dimensions of the stock tires and they look great. The 27" height gives you more clearance and higher profile, and the 11" width adds to tread footprint. I don't know that I've read posts from anyone that...

    Tires and Wheels

    Thanks for the photos jimso and Johnny. Your RTVs look good with the wheels and tires you've chosen. You're right Johnny, I don't want a tire as aggressive as yours, but seeing and hearing what others have done helps in choosing tires and wheels. I am leaning toward Kenati Mongrel or Maxxis...

    Tires and Wheels

    Johnny, Good to hear you have put a larger size on the same model RTV as mine. What specific tire do you have. I'm asking because with all the posts I've read some tires 27x10's might rub because of tread design or having a taller profile than 27" for some reason. I'm thinking I might...

    New heavy duty springs on X900

    Looks good and thanks for the complete reply. How difficult was the heater install? Did the kit include an underhood barrier to seal off fresh air from entering the cab under the dash? Kubota heater kit has one. Did you get defrost kit, difficult to install with windshield in place? Hose...

    New heavy duty springs on X900

    Wow! About 2 1/4" difference. Could you post a side picture of the RTV showing the side profile? I'm just curious what it looks like after the install. Did you install only heavy springs or the whole spring shock assembly? Do you think you need to check wheel alignment? Was it difficult to...

    Tires and Wheels

    Doc I agree with looking around. I'm hoping I can get some good advice here so that I can narrow down my options as I look around. Good for price shopping as well.

    Tires and Wheels

    Bordercollie Thanks for the suggestion. I'm sure they have sold many wheels and tires to RTV owners and they would know what works well. Wheels have to be the correct size and then it becomes personal preference as to appearance. But tires have many other variables (size, ply, radial, tread...

    Tires and Wheels

    This is a great discussion forum! Lots of info and great advice. So, I guess I'm looking for both. I have a 2013 RTV X1120D and I am thinking about getting another set of wheels and tires. I presently have the polished wheels with the rtv tires. For replacement wheels I think I'd like to...

    X1100C Driving Lights

    71sschevelle Very nice job with the lights. Wiring is properly secured and protected as well as looking very tidy. Where did you get the rack with expanded metal on your dump bed? Did you make it yourself? Details?
