    New RTV1100

    Steve ; You drive a hard bargain. I requested a written lowest no trade price on a no option base 1100 RTV from three different dealers..... They didn't vary a hundred dollars. 18K even, included setup and freight, plus sales tax. Dealers over a hundred miles away did not want to throw in...

    New RTV1100

    The base price between the 900 and 1100 with just a tire option is $6400.00 Depending on usage and need....... that should be the tie breaker. A new 1100 with options and tax requires a substancial chunk of change. I was very lucky to find a great used machine in a price range that fit my budget.

    New RTV1100

    I can definately benefit from someones experience in " speaker technology " because I don't have the first clue. Most retail outlets want to sell on the name and highest price. Is there some type of formula for the small space involved that will bring out a great sound ? I am searching on the...

    New RTV1100

    Although I don't know alot about speakers I would like a quality improvement in this area. I think Kubota could have done better for what they charge. It doesn't look like to large of a task to drop the headliner so I will try to get some assistance on what would work best ( maybe some smaller...

    New RTV1100

    Steve; Read the speaker replacement article. Good information. I was wondering if you tried the orig speakers after cutting the headliner. Mine sounds like you said ... " muffled " due to the sound not getting through the space required. I agree the insulation you put in back would surely...

    Door Mirrors

    I was at my local Farm & Home store yesterday. They have what look like some good quality mirrors, about 4x6 with steel or plastic backing for less than ten dollars. A quick tour with the mig welder and I made a couple brackets. I think they will work just fine.

    Winch remote

    I was poking around under the dash today and guess what I found.... The receptacle for the remote wire tied to the radio wiring. The base was hanging down a couple inches and banging against some plastic which caused the rattle I was hearing while crossing rough terrain. I was welding up some...

    Winch remote

    Ok, thanks. Now I know what I am looking for. I would have followed the wires but the A/C under the hood shields much of the space. I guess as a last resort I will put it up on the hoist and chase the wires from the winch itself. it should lead to a junction box with the remore and rocker...

    Winch remote

    I have a Warn 2500# winch dealer installed on my 1100. The orig owner never tried out the wired remote as he didn't know where to plug it in. So it rode under the seat for three years. I wrote Warn winch company and they didn't have a diagram to share or a picture of the connection it plugs...

    PTO Powered Lawn Vacuum

    I sold my Easy Vac Lawn trailer because it is just not easy to maneuver around trees. I have viewed a factory built unit mounted on a Kubota lawn tractor. No close shots to view how it was mounted. I have a John Deere 4110 with a 540 PTO. Two problems exist, 1. the three point arms lift the...

    New Rear U Joints Needed-- Again

    Boardercollie; You do good work. Once in, your commited to go the whole route, seals and all. I don't think I will ever have enough hours on mine to get to this condition but it is great to know there is a thread to refer to. Can't imagine what the dealer would charge for parts and labor. I...

    Muffler shock

    Spudhauler; Did the removal of the spark arrester actually make a noticable difference in power ? Never thought to check mine. Add it to the list.

    Muffler shock

    Is that their claim to fame..... the muffler has flanges ( thin ones at that ) ? Last time I looked the flange basket didn't have any armed guards so they can't be that expensive. Maybe the spot weld process has some merit because the metal is too thin to weld. Still would like to see a...

    Muffler shock

    My friend had a Mule. It was definately not made to last. Plus when you want out...... who do you unload it to ? ( without giving it away )

    Door Mirrors

    JP1100; What a bummer. They are only available in pairs ? I called the dealer last Friday to see if they had them and a price. They could not locate the part number. They called today with additional information. The message said to call them but unfortunately i was busy all day cutting...

    Max tongue weight, RTV 1140

    I have an 8x11 trailer I pull in the field. Had it loaded with rocks. The torsion axle is rated for 3500 so I know when to stop loading when the tires touch the plywood floor. It seems to handle it quite well though I did not go into any deep ditches. Tongue weight has to be in the 125-150...

    Door Mirrors

    I have a YJ with extra mirrors but not really sure how to mount them or if they would stick out too far. Factory would probably work out better. I can't believe they would be that expensive. Plus no new holes in the doors would be a good. The overall appearance is so well designed I hate to...

    New to RTV's

    I am aware most 900s do not have a full enclosed cab. I was refering to the fact the dealer will eventially sell you an updated version ( possibly a 1100 ) after he gets to know you from buying replacement parts. If you never visit the dealership his chance is decreased. I have replaced may...

    New to RTV's

    Kubota is like every other company. They would like you to purchase THEIR parts. Not only do they maintain a good profit margin it also gets you back to the dealership. If you never return they have a hard time selling the replacment machine. They do have a good product but there are wear...
