    New to Me 2005 RTV900 - Low Hours - Needing advice

    Also may want to check the wheel differential lock when you have the side off. I noticed my lock pedal on the floor by my heel, was hard to push down so I cleaned up all the moving parts and was amazed at how they had gotten so stiff - after cleaning and a bit of lube it worked like butter...

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    That's the truth . My family split the cost with me so 3 grand was my part. Dixie works on the farm so she deserved it. She is laying on the floor by me as I type just snoozing away. :)

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    Thank you ItBmine. I didn't take a picture of the step and now it's covered up with my makeshift mat cut to size and attached with my last amount of long cable ties. I found a piece of aluminum on the side of the road though. Probably off of a log truck step ? and my plan is to cut that down...

    RTV 900 Floor Panel & Inner Fender Well

    I live in Mississippi so far away from road salt. But... very close ( everyday ) to mud mingled with manure here on the cattle farm. My RTV had rust under the floor mat - not just the underside. I think it got wet there and stayed wet for long periods of time. It wasn't terrible but it was...

    RTV 900 Won't Move

    Will it move in 4wd? Some members have had stripped splines on rear axles causing no movement.

    Used 2013 RTV900

    It looks like to get to the differential fill /check plug, you will need to feel around that expanded metal cover that was added to the front. If you have very long arms, you can go down to it from the flap located under the hood. I filled mine , after changing it, thru that flap using...
