    RTV900 with Comoplast UTV T4S

    I have an x900 with independent rear suspension. Also, I just pulled the tracks off of mine for summer at least.

    Hand Throttle Install RTV900

    It is either 2006 or x900 but not both...? Mine x900 kit v5241 was >$100 from Messicks, they had to order it from Kubota first

    Track Kit

    On the x900 the steering is limited by setscrews with locknut. With stock bumper you need to limit the steering pretty severely. I hacked the bumper instead.

    Track Kit

    I have the camoplast on a x900. I don't have anything to say about snow because we haven't had any yet this year. First, make sure your garage door is tall enough: the tracks raise the already tall vehicle by 5 inches. Negotiating steep places: It does it with superior traction, not speed...

    Rtv-x seats suck

    Strangely localized phenomenon. Could there have been transfer from someones hazmat suit ? someone wearing exotic cosmetics? Spilling strong drink? Focussed radiation? Could be Kubota(s subcontractor) fell victim to a batch of counterfeit / contaminated plastic. though I would expect the...

    Rtv-x seats suck

    Mine has been out in the weather for a year almost, no problem. No garage, rain for sure, definitely rural. NO armor-all. Cats spraying more likely. Which leads to the question: What kind of air do you have over there???? Being a capitalist entity they (Kubota) may well have switched to...

    Extended fire season RTV1100 vs Ranger 6X6

    Admirable. I was going to comment on how lucky you were to have this strapping helper to drag the pump down to the pond... I'm putting together a minimal set, 55 gallon freebie so far . Terrain around here is steep forest mostly so heavy trailers are a pain but the koob by itself with a...

    sound strategies

    I dearly love my x900 but wish it would be quieter. (WS, no cab) I have removed some rattling plastic but am wondering what could be done about the transmission whine bouncing up behind the seat. The empty bed can also be deafeningly loud. Have any of you treated your rigs for noise? I don't...

    Camo kubota

    Could you elaborate on the wildfire suppression bit? I loaded a 55gal tank and a pressure washer... turns out the pressure washer mostly blows the fire all over the place so I'll have to use another pump.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    Yeah that is why I didn't want the cab and doors. just sidle up to the dear diesel wheelchair, point my arse and settle. Now I have to grab the ROP structure and take a step up. Thankfully the front track is a convenient step but the vehicle is DEFINITELY higher up.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    five inches. which made me dig out the floor of the shed. It also makes getting in and out of the rig a wee bit more cumbersome - can't just just slide in anymore.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    I don't know if the vehicle has a center differential, I assume so. Shinnery is right, would need to stay in 2 wheel drive or... mount smaller wheels on the front to match the ground speed of the tracks

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    pretty dirty on account of cats with muddy paws and general muck. I had to peel off that IRS sticker right away. It was too jarring to see those letters every time I gazed upon my cherished diesel wheelchair.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    I agree the CV joints are too exposed. Stick stoppers will probably have to be custom design to play nice with the track mounting hardware.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    Does anyone know a way to make pictures appear in columns rather than rows? This ultrawide format is disruptive . Thanks

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    OK here are some pix Note I had to raise the tow ball. Still working on the front bumper.

    Camoplast T4S Tracks

    Alright I got mine installed. Pretty straight forward . Cutting back the front bumper is a must unless you are happy with a turning radius of five lanes or so. Swapping from track to wheel is reasonably easy too except that the tracks ARE heavier and somewhat unwieldy, plus the fact that only 2...

    X1100 difficulty shifting transmission

    I am happy to hear that K. is not turning a deaf ear to what is a serious concern. I am looking forward to seeing the bulletin. Thank you for posting, hopefully soon.
