Same here, not meaning to cause issues but my Curtis is 72 in (6 ft). $1750 installed 3 yrs back. Merry Xmas.

I won't argue with your conclusions but for my plowing the Curtis is just fine. I plow a lot of curvy drives and have little need to change the plow angle often. I've also moved 14" of the white stuff without any issues. I've hit curbs, broken concrete seams with enough force to send the 900...

But isn't number 1 diesel = kerosene? You could be right about lubricity due to additives and lack of sulfur etc. My Rabbit diesel manual of many moons back suggested using kerosene or a gallon of gas in the fuel in the winter. I'm not recommending either however. I just make sure I buy my...

It wouldn't hurt to add an anti-gel additive if the fuel is from the summer. If all else fails, I'd check to be sure the glow plugs are actually working. I had a VW diesel moons back and it developed a hard start in cold weather. I think a relay failed, but in any case, the glow plugs weren't...

This is the Curtis plow mount on my 04 900. The tongue on the plow goes into sloped area and catches on the horizontal plate. The two levers with the ball ends go into slots and hold in the circular area on the ends of the slots. A couple of pins hold the ball mount levers from moving. Let me...

This is the install post. http://www.nettractortalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16136 I chose the Pyle setup because it had a very wide field of vision. Glad I did. It's around $70-80 some cheaper, some more but I'm happy with the choice.

Bill I agree with your assessment of the rear view camera. Plowed out my driveway and three neighbors today, probably 1500 running ft or so of drive and parking. Initially, I had to wipe the front window off inside to see but all of the windows cleared eventually. During the whole time I had a...

I've been in Jungle Jim's Fairfield many times and I'll agree about it being a destination to see. If they don't have it food and drink wise, I'd be shocked. Cincinnati is a nice big city if you know someone that can get you around. I look forward to going there in a month. My sister lives in...

BC, Does the Honda have a button on the door handle that can be pushed to lock it and energize the alarm. My wife's 06 Prius and 14 Ram have those and I was under the impression they locked the vehicles without generating a signal. Might help in the future. BIAC, sorry for her loss. Even with...

Richard, That's how I power mine. Here's the connector by the battery, hanging just to the left side. The extension power cable and controller under the seat. I just bought a cheap set of jumper cables and added the ends to make the cable. Bob

I'm pretty sure your receiver is 2" so the HF one should work well. My 04 was only 1 1/4" I believe so I bought a straight ball adapter from HF and did this. Made storage under the hood pretty easy Bob

Dang, That's slicker than whale snot.

Welcome, I think you made wise choices on both the machine and the plow. As above, Pictures. Bob

MIG is better on dirty metal. Clean it up real good and TIG will work well but I'd use MIG due to potential contamination.

To close out the thread. I ordered a new u-joint from Messicks and replaced same today. Everything else was still tight. That took out probably 2/3 of the slop. Luckily the u-joint spline had the wear, the output shaft must be harder material. The cornejo fix took out the rest. I opted to just...

Thanks BC, as always great help. I'll look at it tomorrow. For reference, I believe this is the fix you sited. http://www.cornejo.net/rtv900/DriveShaftRattleFix.htm Can my 04 be updated to the one piece shaft? Update, found the answer here...

Just gave the 04 900 an oil change. Noticed some slop in the u-joint fit on the transfer case/ tranny output shaft to the front whell drive. Normal? If so, how much is acceptable as it moves noticeably in my hand. As a further data point, I can see at least 3/4" of the splines not engaged in...

Well said, Guiliani was a stand up force during 9/11 and afterwards. Gingrich is experienced in dealing with congress and has been a Trump confidant for sometime. Trump probably trusts him to know the way to handle congress. I'm not the biggest fan of Christie but I'll bet Trump will find a...

Agree, that's why I just stay off my lawn with mine.

Much like my Grim Reapers. Great traction but man will they chew up a lawn.
