I don't know when they changed the rear ujoint design like I had on my 2005 and 2012 model 900 , but they were a weak point as well as the 2 pc driveshaft on the 2005. The '12 had the one piece and held up well. Also look for cracked boots. Look for rusty floor under the floor mat that is...
We were having injector/DPF regeneration trouble in our tractors and used some of the Archoil cleaner in our diesel fuel when we refueled. It really seemed to help. I put some in my diesel Roxor too because I was getting carbon buildup in my egr and it also improved. Wonder if that would help...
The MSRP on the little U35 excavator I have is now ridiculous at $66,000 new. 2 years ago they were almost 15,000 cheaper new . Everything has gotten out of hand. But I'm with you Aurthuritis. You are so gifted with repairing them that I think that is a smart move. Maybe you can stumble upon...
You could also check out Messick's Equipment site, They have a parts diagram and parts numbers listed for models so you might could see if they were the same number. https://www.messicks.com/vendor/kubota
I won't be buying a new anything I guess the way prices are going. Years ago, I always sold my RTVs when they got over 4,200 hours on them and 5 years or older, then buying a new one. Now a days though, I need to think about how I can afford to "not to work so hard". Getting older is ok I...
Thank you. That torque converter sounds interesting . :) I also might consider a used but not abused older 2 door Jeep Wrangler in my next adventure strictly for farm use though . Things are getting over priced everywhere. I ordered Mahindra filters for the Roxor a few days ago and saw...
Hi Aurthuritis. I've been pretty happy with my 2018 Roxor. It has some quirts though and I would like it better if it were an automatic. The 2 wd mode in 1st gear is too fast for spraying fences and herding behind calves/cows in calm form. 4wd 1st gear is ok... sometimes it's hard to get...
Happy New Year from me too. Just worked on NY eve and day. I said happy new year to 'em and they just said "feed me feed me" .Cows cows cows.. . Seriously though, may God bless and protect you in the coming year.
I hope all members have a nice and safe Christmas. Remember the real meaning and don't be sad about material things not coming your way... We have been offered the Greatest Gift of all. That means you have too. I accepted mine quite a few years ago and even on my worst days, have never been...
Maybe Aurthuritis will see this . He is good with those machines too. Before hiring the dealer, I'd consider seeing what a new transmission cost to order. Beware though of those that may have been flooded or that are seconds and buy from a reputable source- if you go that way. Or take a look...
I bet you want to be careful of which way the wind is blowing when spraying it. .. Haha The first time I bit into a jalapeno pepper , I'll never forget.. It was like Rosanna Dana on SNL used to say.. "I thought I was gonna die".
and they chew electrical wires/spark plug wires too.. even chewed the wires to the master brake on my late parents truck... and so close to the firewall that it's hard to fix.
Also, if you have a Sam's club up there, or a big cleaning or restaurant supply dept, maybe even amazon or ebay, they sell stainless steel pot scrubbers that are heavy duty and don't rust. They are mouse proof and tough all while being airy...
Many years ago, I bought one of those mouse traps that looks like a metal box. it had an opening ( one way door) on each end and a flip lid for the bait to go in. Also the lid was for the "release " of the varmints... or chunk it in a bucket of water... It worked well until I forgot to check...
I bought a new Kioti tractor 12 years ago and the factory paint from painting it had made the filter not just stuck but stuck stuck. This was the hyd filter behind the big rear tire. I had to cut the paint around the filter top edge with a utility knife to get it loose from the metal part of...
Dixie's at home. Got here yesterday afternoon. She's a handful and has to wear the cone to keep from licking her wound. A ton of meds and no steps ( House is 4 ft off of the ground) very limited walking is hard even for a hyper collie on nerve pills. 10 weeks with no strenuous anything. She's...
We took Dixie to the Mississippi State Surgery Center (for animals) today and met with the doctor and staff. All were very pleasant and doted on Dix. The doc said that the recovery would take 8 to 10 weeks. Dixie said "wow" that has to be a mistake ! But no I said you have to be a good girl...
