    Thinking again of trading the rtv for a roxor

    I won't be buying a new anything I guess the way prices are going. Years ago, I always sold my RTVs when they got over 4,200 hours on them and 5 years or older, then buying a new one. Now a days though, I need to think about how I can afford to "not to work so hard". Getting older is ok I...

    Thinking again of trading the rtv for a roxor

    Thank you. That torque converter sounds interesting . :) I also might consider a used but not abused older 2 door Jeep Wrangler in my next adventure strictly for farm use though . Things are getting over priced everywhere. I ordered Mahindra filters for the Roxor a few days ago and saw...

    Thinking again of trading the rtv for a roxor

    Hi Aurthuritis. I've been pretty happy with my 2018 Roxor. It has some quirts though and I would like it better if it were an automatic. The 2 wd mode in 1st gear is too fast for spraying fences and herding behind calves/cows in calm form. 4wd 1st gear is ok... sometimes it's hard to get...

    My 2017 kubota 1140 RTV will max out speed at 12 mph.

    Maybe Aurthuritis will see this . He is good with those machines too. Before hiring the dealer, I'd consider seeing what a new transmission cost to order. Beware though of those that may have been flooded or that are seconds and buy from a reputable source- if you go that way. Or take a look...

    Mice in RTV

    I bet you want to be careful of which way the wind is blowing when spraying it. .. Haha The first time I bit into a jalapeno pepper , I'll never forget.. It was like Rosanna Dana on SNL used to say.. "I thought I was gonna die".

    Mice in RTV

    and they chew electrical wires/spark plug wires too.. even chewed the wires to the master brake on my late parents truck... and so close to the firewall that it's hard to fix.

    Mice in RTV

    Also, if you have a Sam's club up there, or a big cleaning or restaurant supply dept, maybe even amazon or ebay, they sell stainless steel pot scrubbers that are heavy duty and don't rust. They are mouse proof and tough all while being airy...

    Mice in RTV

    Many years ago, I bought one of those mouse traps that looks like a metal box. it had an opening ( one way door) on each end and a flip lid for the bait to go in. Also the lid was for the "release " of the varmints... or chunk it in a bucket of water... It worked well until I forgot to check...

    Mahindra 5145 Hyd Filter will not budge

    I bought a new Kioti tractor 12 years ago and the factory paint from painting it had made the filter not just stuck but stuck stuck. This was the hyd filter behind the big rear tire. I had to cut the paint around the filter top edge with a utility knife to get it loose from the metal part of...

A ton of meds and no steps ( House is 4 ft off of the ground) very limited walking is hard even for a hyper collie on nerve pills. 10 weeks with no strenuous anything. She's...

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    We took Dixie to the Mississippi State Surgery Center (for animals) today and met with the doctor and staff. All were very pleasant and doted on Dix. The doc said that the recovery would take 8 to 10 weeks. Dixie said "wow" that has to be a mistake ! But no I said you have to be a good girl...

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    It's a clean break but got both bones. It going to require surgery and a plate so the estimate is 4- 6000. She's like my child and will get it done. Saddening but glad it wasn't her neck . I love this puppy . When I picked her up ( 46 Lbs) ," it hurts so bad" she said .. she put her closed...

    26XL Almost Dies Randomly With Blue Smoke

    It almost sounds like when my diesel Roxor has a clogged up EGR except that I had a check engine light on. I did add some high quality injector cleaner to the fuel - beside removing the EGR and testing with block plates. All is good now with it. Wondering if this is fuel related in your...

    Roxor and EGR trouble

    I think it's more complicated on the JD tractor. It's got a lot of parts and tied into the JD computer which only the JD mechanics have access to on their company's computer. I'll ask the bil and see what he says , but I doubt it's easy like I what did to the Roxor.
