thanks , two guns, i guess i'll do some more research on this so called lexan before i make a decision as to which direction i'll go. i've looked into the hinge option some more and i think it might be what i would like. they make them out of several different materials, pvc, polypropylene ...

thanks for the info two guns, i have been pricing "lexan" - polycarbonate I don't know if there is a difference between brands of polcarbonates but i have gotten several prices, as low as 130.00 for a full 4X8 sheet of 1/4 inch thick. it seems reasonable enough, i can make a front and rear...

thanks for the advice two guns, i was wondering how ekcwmi did his, it seemed to work well, jdh1

Hi, ekcwmi, I would like to know how you bent the lexan, did you use a small propane torch? did you work your way across the lexan? how hot did it need to get and how did you judge when to bend? I'd like to try to make a windshield and any advice you or anyone else have would be appreciated...

Hi, just happened to look at a new rtv 1100 at the dealer today and noticed it had a pretty nice rear view mirror, it might be an option for you, jdh1

Hi bluff country, I have a 2006, and the temp gauge seems to work as intended. With an outside air temp of around 75-80 degrees it reads just below half way. If I put it under a load it will rise to 3/4 and then drop back down, I can tell when the thermostat is opening and closing. In the winter...

Hi KEZ, i've had my RTV about a year now,in NY state, the only time I got it stuck was in deep ( 12 to 15 inch) snow with a thick crust on top. I bought a winch to fix that problem, as far as the hills go I have a few pretty steep ones on my property and as long as you don't want to go up them...

I also agree with bczoom, my rtv has exceeded my expectations and is basically bulletproof. A real workhorse.

i just recently purchased a kubota/curtis snow plow for my 2006 rtv. I was wondering if i should remove the subframe from the rtv for the summer? I have bottomed it out a few times, not hard enough to do any damage though. If anyone has removed it seasonally did you use the original ( shorter )...

HI, just my 2 cents worth, i've been using STANADYNE brand diesel fuel treatments for years. I was told by a reputable diesel injection service mechanic that this is the stuff to use. I've been using both the PERFORMANCE FORMULA and the LUBRICITY FORMULA together in my 2006 rtv with no problems...

thanks again,,bczoom, i'm on to my next project

I received the winch today and it looks as though i will need to make a bracket to mount the fairlead as it has no holes in the bottom. It shouldn,t be a problem, I might even weld a couple of pieces of angle iron to it to make it work,is that what you did, bczoom ? Did you stick the antenna to...

Thanks for the reply, bczoom, you have answered all my questions and it seems to be a fairly easy job. Great picture, THANKS AGAIN, jdh1

hi, I intend to put a ramsey #3000 wireless winch on my 2006 rtv. I was wondering if I need to purchase the winch mount plate sold by kubota? it seems to me the winch should just fit in the front cutout where the mounting plate is. It also seems that the pre drilled holes should line up. Does...

thanks for the reply, bordercollie, i guess i'll improvise, jdh1

the gasket i received with the door is approx. 1 1/4 inches wide by 3/8 of an inch thick. the groove on the door is only 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch wide. i'm not sure if i should cut the gasket to fit in the groove? also the gasket seems just like a piece of self adhesive weatherstripping. the piece...

HI, I just purchased a glovebox by ordering the pieces separately to save money but I didn't get instructions.Does anyone know how the door gasket goes on, does it stick to the door or the box itself? There are 2 cutouts on the gasket,are they for the hinges? I don't want to stick it on until I...

I also have a rattle in the front end, mines only at medium speeds on a hard, gravel road. Its not too bad, I was wondering if it could be the front hood since mine has about a 1/4 inch of play in the latch when you lift up on the hood with it closed. I was thinking of shimming the latch to...

2 clicks to the right is the glow plug position on the key, the light on the dash should come on. It's described on page 12 of the owners manual.

Does anyone have any thoughts or experience using a diesel fuel supplement? I'm using " on road " #2 diesel and was considering using a supplement which will boost the cetane and also work as an anti gel. I figured I would only use it around freezing temps and below. According to the bottle it...
