Engine oil filter bracket was broke off of the mount that isattached to engine.</p>


Dealer ordering new bracket. May need to weld some support on the new one. Does not look very strong. This engine oil filterbracket is welded to the back of the A/C mounting bracket. Still using machine, oil filter hose is keeping thefilter on the machine.</p>

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> Anyway you can get us some photos of this, this might be something tommy can help all with. He's great with metal and might can figure out a better way to support ~~~~~~~~</span></span></p>

Thanks for the kind words ...........</p>


Tommy I don't think has a RTV 1100 yet, but is in the making......I was thinking, with hismetal working skills, and seeing what a professional job he does on other things on the RTV's. Don't think that man would have any problemfinding a way to fix the problems that some are having with the support brackets on the machines ~~~~~~ just a thought >>>>>></p>

yea if it can be fixed i would be able to fix it for sure. i just have a few more payments on my hpx and then i guess i'll try to put some money on the side for something else. i'm trying to get the rest of the stuff made and painted up and i'm gonna hit ebay with it and try to get something going there.hopefully things will look up .</p>

Please put "RTV" somewhere in the subject so I don't kick it out as spam.</p>

Yep went to do50 hr ck and my oil filter bracket busted to.Looks like
a pretty big job to put in new bracket as a/c might have to come off.
I'm just going to put a piece of flat steel with a couple bolts and fix it that way,Drilling holes a pain but looks easier then dealing withA/C.
