Take i piece of 1/4 inch thick flat steel and cut a u shape notch in it that will just barely slip over the steering shaft. Drill a couple of holes in it for the long bolts and use a steering wheel puller

The half shafts need to be able to move in and out as the suspension travels. Look at the hub next to the differential to see if that is full of dried mud or something preventing this movement. It is possible if that is stuck that your just pulling it free

Just to be clear? When you crack the injector line nothing happens? Have you bleed the air out of your injection lines?

I would think a good mechanic or welder like peanut on this site could make a couple of brackets out of angle iron that would bolt to the bottom of the floor frame and extend out under the door frame so that a step could be fabricated? Might consider using heavy belting for the sides of the...

I can confirm... mine does the same and the control cable gets kinked. I haven't been successful at a remedy

The rtv 1100cw is the predecessor to the rtvX1100c. I think 2011 or 2012 would be the last year for them but not sure. I just used duck duck go to do a search and found many of them for sale. Take a look? Just remember to leave out the X

Here's a wrinkle for ya! You should consider the older model rtv 1100. The cab is nicer more car like the engine has just a little more ppwer you get a three speed transmission a beefier suspension and a bigger bed just a little more speed and cheap. The draw back is the doors have fixed...

Yes head gasket can affect compression. So can the valves and rings. The 1105 is a robust engine that had an excellent track record if not overheated. Why i wonder did the rod fail?

I am not very familiar with the rtv 500 but I'll try. Since this is a gasoline engine and two cyl 15 hp my guess that it doesn't have much low end tourqe anyway. As in its diesel brothers the linkage adjustment is critical to matching engine rpm torque to the hydrostatic transmission so i...

Thank you very much for the update! Good to hear you got it going

Thank you for that information. It's good to know the rtv has a long dependable service life

your 2011 had an odometer? Would you share the condition of your 1100 was in at that mileage and hours?

Take it apart and measure the seals etc. Then order from McMaster carr. Or take it off and visit a machine shop.

I have an 07 model rtv 1100 i can measure for you. By sockets do you mean the square holes in the front corners?

If the level is between the full and add mark you are good to go. Overfill will damage the engine more than a slight underfill. Start it let it run for a few min then shut off and immediately check the level and note the dipstick. Let it set for an hour and recheck to see the differences. If...

Rtvx 1100C? Yes the brakes are in the gear case outboard of the differential. If the brakes are to tight or are overheated for any reason the steel plated can warp and cause intermittent friction. Some cheap oils can break down the fiber disks cause swelling and do the same. Low oil in the...

Those tires look perfect for my use. What brand are they? how many ply are they and are they radials?

Very useful information. Thank you for trying the mix and match of the pistons in the rotating valve assy. And your results with resurfacing the brass valve plate. Your finding the source of the screaming is significant also. Many should benefit. Thank you

if the cable you are refering to is the small cable Attached directly to the governor and the bell crank? That slack is necessary to the correct function of the whole system.

Good to see so many old model rtv 1100 out there. My kubota are an mx 5100 tractor and an rtv 1100c and rtv x1100c. All going strong solid workhorses
