    RTV-X1100C Floor Mat Recall

    One of the issues with ALL of these rubber floormats is the rust which can occur and rot-out the floorboards because of trapped moisture beneath that rubber mat. Althought I’ve not suffered that issue (yet)…. I’m considering removing the mat…and painting the floor with Rhino bedliner.

    Hand throttle on RTV-X vehicles

    The brake pedal should unload the transmission as already mentioned…. I have installed a placard on my dash so family members and friends who use it can see “Apply Brake to Change Gears”. But I also often find that the shift lever will not fully enter the detent of a newly selected gear…..and...

    Rtv x1120DD not moving

    Can you recommend a “cheap laser tach”…?? I tried a couple other types* and they simply are not reliable. When I purchased my 2014 X900 I suspect the PO had adjusted the idle-screw “down” to what he thought a diesel should idle at (….i.e., so slow it vibrated excessively)…. so I readjusted it...

    Hand throttle on RTV-X vehicles

    Another major reason for higher operating RPMs for HSTs are the increased flow of hyd fluid thru the coolers. Kubota addresses that in the RTV series by adding electric fans and thermostats to the hyd cooling system… because running an RTV/UTV vehicle continuously at higher engine RPMs would be...

    RTVx1100c Fuel tank capacity

    On my 2014 X900….the fuel gauge has 7 segments. Each one seems to equate to one gallon. When it’s down into the last / lower segment…I refill and it always takes 7 gals. As I add the fuel…as each gallon “ticks off” on the meter another segment illuminates/fills-in. The manual warns that it...

    Rattle from dump bed

    I am both amused …and irritated….at the rattle that comes from the dump bed…mostly noticeable at idle/rest. It seems a major cause of this rattle is the side-panel-inserts on the sides of the dump bed. They are inserted/retained by grooves within the upper edge and ends of the side-walls...

    Anybody use their RTV for recreational off road fun?

    Every time I do any work around the ranch at all….when I can use the RTV….THAT IS “off-road” recreation!

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

    In April of 2019 I bought a 2015 RTV-X900GP with less than 300 hrs on it, with Plexiglas windshield, L.E.D. lightbar, 4500 Warn Winch/w synthetic rope and remote control, Factory Rhino bedliner, steel wheels w/off-road tires, backup work-lights, and a full “service kit” in the dump-bed (all...

    KUBOTA X1100C Interior pic's and accessories

    That 9-32 volts is in the Advert/LISTING of the item..but the “Technical Specificaitons” states Only “32 volts”. But for stuff made in china…I guess that is a “pass”. Thx.

    How did you resolve the 32 volt power requirement?

    Thanks for that reply. I was unaware of such thing as a “remote controlled LED spotlight” until you gave that link. With this latest reply…I’m thinking “Christmas in July…or April!” (why don’t the emoticons work in these forums anymore?)

    Glad it works for you! (The reviews at Amazon are horrible…. of course, one of those reviews complains because the magnetic base won’t stick to aluminum.) 😂

    Bevel Case Oil Seal

    OK…figured this out WITH THE HELP OF DOUG AT MESSICKS! (My local Kubota Dealer is full of Poop and nearly cost me serious money.) The illustration above indicates the oil seal is TWO PIECE… but a new seal has a superceded PN …which can mislead you into thinking the new seal (which comes...

    Bevel Case Oil Seal

    My M4700DT developed a front axle oil leak at the left bevel gear case oil seal (item 8. Notice the pic shows the seal to be a two-piece seal..but it’s actually a one-piece…similar to a common wheel bearing seal or any axle seal.) I ordered the parts and disassembled it and I’m attempting...

    Toolmans gun rack

    Here’s what the old siding looked like before I covered it with the R-panel. (Click on the pic to enlarge it and you’ll see what an improvement R-panel over it is….gives an idea of just how much I love that plasma cutter) Sorry for the thread-drift…GET yourself a PLASMA CUTTER!

    Toolmans gun rack

    Tractor Supply was selling 120-volt Forney Plasma Cutters at year-end for $400 so I bought one. It has cut about 2K feet of 20-ga sheet metal (installed R-panel siding on the old ranch-house) and also cuts 1/4” steel plate just fine. Great brand-name for a great price… much easier than a...

    I do too much idling to be accurate with miles per gallon use… but it’s very close to 25-30 mpg.

    ZZZ2D1…. Cadex is a mfr’r of very good battery charging systems …and that link you provide is merely how THEIR CHARGER works …in accordance with THEIR philosophy of contant-current chargers. That’ a very GOOD way to charge a depleted lead-acid battery…but not the best way to maintain it for...
