I have put them in my 1100 and they fit good and no problems. I have put a couple hundred hours on it since being installed. They looked to be well made.

If your front tires are wearing more then the back you may want to check the toe-in. If the toe-in is good you may want to start rotating the tires when you do your service work.

From what I have seen it could be one of two things. One is the spindle nut has come loose and needs to be torqued. Or two the wheel bearing has gone bad and needs to be replaced. The spindle nut is the easiest fix.

You can get new u-joints at the u-joint store for the 1100. they are about 25 apiece. They are the correct size, no grinding needed to inatall.

Thanks, this board has given me a lot on knowledge about my RTV. It's saved me both time and money. It's only right that I give back when I can to try to help others.

I'm glad you got it. I was going to tell you to check fuel flow from the tank when you had the filter out and if it was low to clean out the line. You may want to run it low on fuel and get someone with small hands to reach in and clean the tank.

Here is a link to a few pictures I took of the new u-joints. The first picture is comparing the old and new joints. The second picture is how I removed the old u-joint. Without a press to take a u-joint apart. You can see one side of the joint is resting on the vice and the other part is...

Aurthuritis, that is the place. Like you I did not know if a link was allowed or not so I did not post it. Talking to the owner he seemed like a nice guy. Unlike some of the u-joints they have talked about in other post that you have to remove a few thousandths to make it fit or its a little...

I placed a few photos of the u-joints on my profile for anyone to see. When I figure out how I will post them to this.

I found a good place to get the u-joints for a RTV1100. I measured them against what I took out and they match up. They went in with no problems. I got them from the u joint store and they are only $25 apiece and you can grease them, a whole lot better then any other place I have found that...

The Thistle can take over a field if left unchecked and be hard to get rid of. You will need to spot spray several times a year over the next few years to get rid of all of them. Each year will be a lot less but you still have the seed bank from past years. They grow fast so every month you...

I put some break free on mine, removed the snap rings, and used a vise to take them apart. I opened the vise up wide enough to support the yoke on the bottom side. I then took a piece of square steel stock, a square chisel works, and laid it flat across the top of the cross section of the...

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!!!

My 1100 started going from cold start to hot in just a few minutes and it was a bad t-stat. Someone had also switched the lines on the overflow bottle and when it would heat up it would blow everything out of the overflow bottle. Just make sure to get the o-ring on the correct side of the...

What has worked for me is on level ground get to full speed, let off the gas, and take it out of four wheel while coasting .

Check the ujoints and the drive shaft. A bad ujoint will be clicking and the drive shaft could have a lot of play and make a noise.

I Have seen and heard about other shops that when they fix one thing you have something else break a short time later. It seems like they do something to make it break. Or they tell you one thing is wrong and the real fix cost a lot less but you pay the high price anyway. They make the honest...

Mark, I have done that with no luck. a couple said it must be metric so we can't help. I was hoping the 900 and 1100 would use the same u joint but no such luck. I had a list on numbers that other members have used on their 900's be fore I pulled it but after measuring them decided they would...

Bordercollie I looked at Messicks and they were the same price as I can get local. I have seen your post changing your u joints and hope I have it a lot easier getting them apart. Thanks for all of the pics you posted. I spent a hour or so trying to get the first cap out, trying several ways...

Its time to replace the u joints since one went bad. I've searched where most are talking about the 900 replacements. It looks like the 1100 may have a little bit larger u joint than the 900 from the aftermarket parts they are using. The cap is the same dia. at 0.984 or 25mm, but the cap to...
