WOW,you'd think Kubota could have come up with a better spot to put that cooler! jdh1

TWO GUNS,,I'm pretty sure that HST should be HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISION. jdh1

D&D FARM, I'm not sure how many hours you have on your RTV or if the hydraulic fluid has been changed but it should have had Super UDT fluid in it from the factory. jdh1

rapracing, I did get the u-bolts from a Kubota dealer, they work great because the plastic is isolated from any shock or vibration. I drilled the mounting holes slightly oversized to accomidate temprature changes and to avoid them touching the u-bolts. There is no vibration at all when driving...

Jon, The hinge is called a "slip over panel plastic piano hinge". It is made for 1/4 inch material. I originally was going to glue it on but it fits very snug, there is a little edge inside which holds the plastic once it is inserted. By not cementing it I will be able to remove it easier. I was...

rapracing, You've been mentioning a windshield, I thought you might be want to consider an alternative to the Kubota glass one. I recently made my own from a product called Makrolon, which is a polycarbonate material simular to GE Lexan, supposedly not as good but has been working great for me...

Dennis, I've been spreading lime & fertilizer for 2 years with an Earthway #80 atv broadcast spreader which I have been attaching to the rear hitch on my rtv 900. I originally used it on my 4 wheeler, then I fabricated a frame to use it in a 2 inch receiver and use an adapter in the rear hitch...

Captain, I recently installed the V4219 HD springs on my 2006 rtv. The job went smoothly, took about 2 hours. You will need a spring compressor, I purchased an inexpensive one on e-bay, worked OK. You remove the tire and wheel, loosen the a-arm, disconnect the tie rod end, disconnect the knuckle...

forest dweller, I had these shoes around for awhile, I'd originally had them on the backblade of my tractor for plowing snow. Now they will stay on the RTV since its nice to plow snow going forward for a change. I'm pretty sure they are from a Western pickup plow. The original Curtis shoes even...

I have also had a problem with the shoes on the Curtis plow.My driveway is gravel so I try to keep the blade an inch or so off the ground. The stem being only 9/16'' thick bends very easily. I just today enlarged the holes on the plow to 1'' and I installed 2 mushroom shoes from a regular 7'...

I was using the 10-30 kubota oil for the past year mainly because I didn't want any warranty issues. I thought the kubota oil performed well, I had no problems in the winter when starting the engine using the glow plugs when it was freezing and below. I'm not sure what i'll do for the next oil...

ground hog man, I was thinking along the same lines as you with the 5-40 rotella, I can buy it for the same price as kubota oil. What temperature range to you encounter where you live? Also is there any truth to not being able to go back to regular oil once you use synthetic? I need something...

I'm not positive but I think most of the smaller atv winches, say #1500 - #3000 lb models all have the same hole pattern. I mounted a #3000 lb ramsey and it fit the holes perfectly if thats any help. JDH1

Hi pappy19, I have a 2006 rtv with a Ramsey #3000 wireless remote winch. I have'nt used it a real lot but it has worked well. I pulled myself out of a frozen and snow covered stream last winter when I couldn't get enough traction. It had no trouble moving the rtv even though it was uphill. I...

i'd still like to know how ekcwmi bent his, jdh1

at that price it would pay to buy the kubota glass, thinking about it, i still want to see what these other people are trying to sell me as lexan, i know it can't be marguard. thanks, jdh1

Thanks bczoom, i'm going to check out exactly what these people are trying to sell me and then decide which way to go. I'll try to post some pics if I do make my own windshield. jdh1
