    What is DPF?

    I see DPF for sale at truck stops too and believe the trucks have to use it too. Any newly built diesel over a certain hp has it . My little excavator a U35-4 ,doesn't have it. It's 28 hp best I remember though. I think that having no DPT is why we got such a high dollar for our 7210...

    DPF Fault and what can I do.

    Our John Deere tractors with DPF have been an expensive pain. We have spent thousands on one of them. It needs to do the burn off or it will cost $$$$$. When our dash light comes on now, showing what looks like a tiny radiator with air blowing on it, we let the tractor run at a higher...

    2004 RTV 1100 door glass

    Might want to consider getting a piece of the plexiglass that doesn't yellow. I bought a windshield for my Roxor made of it years ago and it's still clear. May be called Lexan . Would need to be thick enough to roll down without flexing though.. Also maybe check with a glass shop...

    RTV's Wanted or For Sale ..post em here.

    This is a link here to the roof for the Roxor I made. https://www.nettractortalk.com/forums/threads/hardtop-coming-soon.17918/#post-130954 It has a 2 piece roof put together as one so it slopes in the front. One day I may make a top console like I did for the rtv but time is slipping by...

    I made my own using plywood,paint and DJ clamps. It had wood trim on the sides . The DJ clamps are a great fit (recommended by BCZoom ). These at this link are not the same ones I ordered many years ago but appear to be...

    Hot enough for ya?

    It's been pretty bad here except for a few days. We've been building over 2 miles of electric fence and cross fences. Hot as stink and getting tanned through shirts. Dixie is staying at home where it's cool.. just too hot for all of that thick hair of hers. I bought myself one of these 36...

    Need Help with lifting arms!

    Welcome ! I don't know this tractor but on my Kioti compact, it has 2 levers that control the lift or draft. On mine, if levers aren't up all the way to the top, it won't lift past a certain level. I can't make out from the picture of yours, on my screen though ,so it could indeed be a...

    RTV 900 Moves in 4wd but not 2WD

    Congratulations !!! !!!! The differential lock fix should be easy. I had to do that to mine also. There's a post on this forum about that too. All of that linkage just needs cleaning and greasing. ( At least that's all mine needed) ...

    Tires

    Back when I had my last RTV, I used the Blackwater s too and they were great here on the farm. 4wd was often not necessary with them. They also had thick sidewalls and plys. That's important on such a heavy machine. Pavement will wear deep lugs faster so beware of that n your search. I had no...

    RTV 900 Moves in 4wd but not 2WD

    Even after over 4000 hrs, on each of my RTV's, the splines on my RTV's axle shafts were never worn out so I can't comment on buying any aftermarkets. I would think , that those ujoints are nearing their end of life so would consider replacing them when doing the other work. The hardest...

    RTV 900 Moves in 4wd but not 2WD

    The guys on here are first rate and most are real knowledgeable. I'm not to bad for an old lady farmer but don't remember some details like I use to. How many hours are on your machine? The u joints would look "broken" and just hanging (in my opinion) if they were the sole culprit. So...

    RTV 900 Moves in 4wd but not 2WD

    The rear u joints in the old models are easier to replace than they used to be just because the parts are more available. I replaced mine several times in the years I owned my 2005 and then 2011/12 RTV s. The first time I did the replacement wasn't the best but the second time was pretty...

    2008 RTV. 500 Starter spins but does not engage motor

    On my Roxor, the starter is sorta hard to reach with a hammer so I used a fiberglass round fence post (1/2" dia) to extend the hammer's reach. Also have used a wooden dowel rod. A few wacks and I was back going. Replacement starter is still on the shelf waiting.

    Wow Doc !! Looks good. I was worried about flying debris breaking the window but I see that you came out fine. :)

    Think of trading the x1100c

    I wish my Roxor was automatic- lots of gates here and then moving cows are more complicated with the gear shifting.. I do like it though. I can't believe that I've had it 5 years this past April...

    front one piece drive shaft

    I had to replace the boot on my one piece before i sold it in 2019. The center floor panel is removeable to make it more accessible . Look under the mat and will likely need to use penetrating oil and the rap of a hammer to set the screwdriver in the head of the bolt. ( I think it was a big...

    New Headliner and Post Covers for John Deere 7210

    We've had a JD 7210 tractor for about 20 years. This tractor is the smallest in the bil's "herd" of tractors. He has 2 4020's that are parked and just enjoyed for the memories and then 2 larger JDs ( 6150 and 6155) that we use for clipping pastures and pulling the feed wagon in the winter...
