    New to Me 2005 RTV900 - Low Hours - Needing advice

    Check on Messick's Equipment site. They have tons of diagrams and helpful information along with some videos. If it were me, I'd change all fluids and filters with Kubota items including the transmission. Also check the front knuckle cases and the differential. You can reach the dip stick for...

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    That's the truth . My family split the cost with me so 3 grand was my part. Dixie works on the farm so she deserved it. She is laying on the floor by me as I type just snoozing away. :)

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    Thank you ItBmine. I didn't take a picture of the step and now it's covered up with my makeshift mat cut to size and attached with my last amount of long cable ties. I found a piece of aluminum on the side of the road though. Probably off of a log truck step ? and my plan is to cut that down...

    RTV 900 Floor Panel & Inner Fender Well

    I live in Mississippi so far away from road salt. But... very close ( everyday ) to mud mingled with manure here on the cattle farm. My RTV had rust under the floor mat - not just the underside. I think it got wet there and stayed wet for long periods of time. It wasn't terrible but it was...

    RTV 900 Won't Move

    Will it move in 4wd? Some members have had stripped splines on rear axles causing no movement.

    RTV 2" receiver mounted broadcast spreader

    Thanks Zoom. On the 300 g sprayer that I use with my little Kioti tractor, (PTO driven) I run the water line going to the boom less nozzle that has a 28 ft reach, from the tank up to my seat . I put in a brass water cut off with a lever and have it tied up there by my seat. The liquid...

    Used 2013 RTV900

    It looks like to get to the differential fill /check plug, you will need to feel around that expanded metal cover that was added to the front. If you have very long arms, you can go down to it from the flap located under the hood. I filled mine , after changing it, thru that flap using...

    Transmission Fluid Change Interval

    My RTV had a stainless wire mesh piece that came oem and fit into the neck of my rubber breather tube both pieces were removeable . I never had any transmission oil splash out.

    Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

    Dixie got a clean bill of health last Wednesday's x ray, and is free to run and jump . ( I'm watching her like a hawk though and not letting her get too hyped up. ) It happened Nov 6th and this was mid February .. It's been a long road to hoe but I have been surely blessed and am so...

    2017 Kubota Rtv 900

    I don't know when they changed the rear ujoint design like I had on my 2005 and 2012 model 900 , but they were a weak point as well as the 2 pc driveshaft on the 2005. The '12 had the one piece and held up well. Also look for cracked boots. Look for rusty floor under the floor mat that is...

    Kubota 900 injector issues

    We were having injector/DPF regeneration trouble in our tractors and used some of the Archoil cleaner in our diesel fuel when we refueled. It really seemed to help. I put some in my diesel Roxor too because I was getting carbon buildup in my egr and it also improved. Wonder if that would help...

    Thinking again of trading the rtv for a roxor

    The MSRP on the little U35 excavator I have is now ridiculous at $66,000 new. 2 years ago they were almost 15,000 cheaper new . Everything has gotten out of hand. But I'm with you Aurthuritis. You are so gifted with repairing them that I think that is a smart move. Maybe you can stumble upon...

    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...
