    Bedliners & other questions...

    How do you guys manage to cope having the wheel on the wrong side?? I hired a car there last year and found a gun range for a play, much fun. Our gun laws are very restrictive, and handguns are outlawed. I will only be at the show a couple of days so that leaves the rest of the week for some...

    Bedliners & other questions...

    Thanks for your thoughts Mr Zoom. Slime sounds like a great idea. Having read lots of posts (currently on page 58) I get the feeling my bank manager would not approve of membership of this forum :) I am attanding a trade show at the convention center in Orlando :) Too many Brit tourists...

    Bedliners & other questions...

    I have found out that the Kubota OEM bedliner is out of stock over here so am considering a spray liner. Most of the franchiseshere use what I belive to be US products such as Rhino etc. Any recomendations you guys can offer on which you think is a better product would be welcome. Could...

    Howdy from across the pond

    I got the RTV back this morning, and I have to say it is a different beast from the one they took away. Very responsive, and a quick test took me up a hill in H that it would only manage in low beforehand. Reverse gear is also performing as you would expect. I asked what finally solved the...

    Just had a call from the dealer. The two tec guys from Kubota UK have solved the issue. He didnt go into too much detail (I will get more when they return it tomorrow), but the problem has come from the relief valves. They were removed, adjusted and now all works well. They simulated the...

    Fortunately this kind of thing happening is the reason I buy expensive equipment through an approved dealer. The unit came with full six month warranty so thankfully it's all coverd, and as mentioned previously they have been fantastic. They know the unit well as they have serviced it since new.

    Question is would you have spent all that dough if the dealer has said "Son you'll be fine as long as you dont get stuck against a tree on a small incline" ??

    Thanks for the welcome Pepr, as Two Guns points out, they all have their quirks I guess.

    Bordercollie, thanks. A very interesting summary, your link explains a lot. I still feel I should be able to climb a 3 inch container lip though :)

    Howdy from across the pond

    Well based on the reaction to my dealer seeing the following video on YouTube, they called in Kubota UK who sent two tec's to their dealership on Monday after they had collected the RTV for the second time. Now don't get me wrong, I know the RTV is an unbeatable piece of enginering, and I also...

    Interesting, why to goodness would that happen on an ATV such as this? Would the same apply if the wood was behind the front tires?

    Thanks for the welcome guy's. Well, the first issue was when I took her into my wood to haul out some logs. This wood is on a hill, but nothing too drastic, or so I thought. Anyways she got up there ok, but when I swung her round facing downhill there was no way she could reverse up it (see...

    Hi Guy's, Great site. reading this forum convinced me to go the RTV route for my ATV needs. So after last year's near coldest on record winter for us (I live near Manchester) in the UK I decided to be prepared this winter. So the kubota arrived end November. I then added a Tomlin plough and...
