Did anyone notice the attack tonight?

lundi 29 août 2022

Around 9:46 this evening our server was hit with a massive DDos (Denial of Service) attack. A coordinated effort by someone controlling a lot of bots.
It could have been in frustration due our diligence in keeping most spammers off the site. Or it could have been completely random by someone picking IP addresses and trying to bring them down. Last time this happened I was with a different ISP and we were down for over 12 hours. The current ISP is fantastic. So happy with them...

Coast Valve Kit for RTV

Good evening
I was browsing around and saw a valve for the hst Kubota RTV that is supposed to eliminate the lurching stop when you let off the pedal. I don't mind it with my L3200 but it is a bit annoying on a side by side. Has anyone tried it? It sounds easy to install but how snake oily is it? I surely don't want to damage my expensive new toy.

Speed issue-again

My RTC 1100C has been slow since purchased brand spanking new. When purchased, the dealer installed a factory 2" lift kit and 31 inch tires.
On flat ground, it would struggle to hit 20 MPH. Going up the long slows sloping driveway, it slowed down to 13-14 mph.
Took it back, they said nothing could be done.
Took it back again-nothing could be done. Decided to just live with it.
Got a recall the other day and took it in for that and asked them to check it for speed while they have it.
First...

Barn Door

dimanche 28 août 2022

I finally got to widening the barn door today. I went from 7' 6" to 11' 8" Now I can drive the kubotas in and out without having to shuffle them around. I had an extra 4' door so I added it. This will make it a lot easier to back the 1100 in with the snow blade on.

Glow plug lamp

I have an L48 Kubota tractor, when I go to start it the glow plug lamp comes on, wait a few seconds and she fires right up, and the lamp goes out …..however twenty minutes later while working it the lamp will come on again for 30-60 seconds and go out….this repeats at odd intervals while working? So is it a bad air temperature intake sensor or the relay or???

Hello everyone, thanks for all the great posts.
I have a leak in the transmission fluid (found by adding u.v. dye)
Any thoughts? Should there be nuts on these bolts?

early Gator Turf rear axle removal

lundi 22 août 2022

vin: VGOTURF016783 Anyone know the trick to removing rear axle to replace bearing & seal? I see internal snap rings in the image but how would you get to them with axle flange in the way? Then I guess a slide hammer to pull the axle with bearing? Or out of the bearing? I guess I could take a plasma cutter & enlarge the brake plate mounting access hole but I shouldn't have to do that. axle.jpg

The Beast

dimanche 21 août 2022

Hello, this is my first post. I enjoy reading the posts on this site and always learn something new. I own an L3200 and recently bought an 1100c to replace a John Deere HPX Gator. There is no comparison between the two except that they both seat two and have 4 wheels. The power of the Kubota is very impressive. It is a nit noisy but it doesn't have that squealing belt problem of the Gator. I froze my butt off plowing in the Deere but I was able to use my snow plow from the Gator by buying a...

RTVx1100c Transmission Issue

samedi 20 août 2022

I purchased a used 2017 Kubota RTV x1100c with about 300 hours. I changed all fluids and filters using the Kubota Hydraulic Fluid. It ran fine for about a year. Then, as I was heading home the trans was slipping. After parking it, I checked all fluid levels. When I tried to engage the transmission it now makes a noise and vibrates. There are no leaks and am hoping this is a minor fix since the transmission has so few hours.

Fuel Pump???

jeudi 18 août 2022

From the "Seafoam" Thread a while back:




Hey and glad this has been brought up.............My RTV 900, 05 vintage, has had some kind of fuel problem for a year now. Perhaps 400 to 500 hours...........

With a load, going up hill or a grade it looses power in cylinders. The hill is 15 to 20 degrees and 600 yards or so. It may begin on a simple 4 or 5 degree grade; but usually on the steeper hills. Usually, the engine needs to be very warmed up to hot and the weight of the load may be...

Changing transmission fluid

How long after changing the TF on my RTV1120D will the "air" work itself out of the system? Mine appears sluggish up hills. Getting better though.

Searching for Curtis cab hinges ...

Hi all. Hoping someone can help! I've hit a wall with Kubota and Curtis Tractor cabs -- manufacturer of the aftermarket fiberglass cab (FOPS #V42147, IMG_1175.JPGser.# 184733) on our 2007 RTV900. Top hinge on driver's side door became bent when door flew open during transport. Attempts to refabricate aren't accurate enough to realign the finicky latch, thus, I'm relegated to right-side entry only! (First-World problem, I know). I've tried Curtis directly but no help. Worked through a local...

Whoops oil put in transmission

mercredi 17 août 2022

My associate was "changing the engine oil"; accidentally put 1 gal of engine oil into transmission filler plug. Engine was never started. We drained the transmission and replaced both filters and refilled with transmission oil. Am I safe by draining overnight and refilling or do I need to have the unit flushed?

copperhead

lundi 15 août 2022

While riding with my son along our trail to the boat docks he spotted this snake. Camouflaged and very hard to see. Once he pointed him out to me we backed up and looked closer. Looks like a copperhead. Kill it if we can. Surprisingly it did not move quickly out of the way the first time the knobby tires ran over it. So we did it a few more time till it looked like the pic below.

We went on down to his boat, dropped him off to take his boat to the ramp and I headed back up the trail to get...

Stop Solenoid Replacement

If you have ever had your diesel engine just turn over but not crank, it could be the stop solenoid. You can usually hear it click about 10 seconds after you turn the machine off but if it's not up to snuff, it won't be in position net time when you try to crank the RTV. As members Covington and Muleman had stated in my first post on this subject, you can stomp on the pedal and the solenoid will usually release with a click. Then it will crank easily. I'd been fiddling with mine for a...

$15 redneck AC for my RTV

vendredi 12 août 2022

Pros:
- cheap at $15 from amazon
- easy install with adhesive backing
- decent air movement
- reasonably quiet
- cord is just the right length

Cons:
- on/off switch is hard to reach and feels flimsy. My solution here is to turn the switch to high and leave it there and then control on/off with the power plug. Power plug stowes easily in the glove box for transport.
- If the fan motor ever fails, I suspect that the adhesive tape will leave a mess

Changing power steering hoses to the cylinder 230 1980?

I have removed some of the tractor sheet metal trying to get to the “steering” head - Does anyone know if it will help or necessary to remove the steering wheel to do the repair? I have the difficult to find hoses in route to me - no instructions on line that I can find and no instructions in manual.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. I’m new to this forum and trying to find my way around.

Respectfully,

- the steering has no "stop" you can turn the steering wheel all the way around a couple times, and unless you turn it quickly the tires do not move.the rack and...

mardi 9 août 2022

Hi, I priced Mahindra 3316 and 3535 today. (posted on mahindra forum here) I was offered a Kioti ck35 with loader for midd 15's. It looks like a really nice machine and has a suspension seat , with detachable loader.. What do ya'll think of this one . 5 grand cheaper that the 3535 makes me like it a lot and it has ag tires which I need... I am most concerned about quality - and what I understand it is made in S korea and is well done. What do ya'll think of this one ? Thanks!! Bordercollie

Backup Camera

dimanche 7 août 2022

I have been planning on installing a backup camera for some time because of my lack of depth perception when trying to maneuver my machine in tight spaces. After bumping trailer hitch to trailer hitch with my truck I finally ordered a camera from Amazon and installed it yesterday. I mounted the camera on top of the transmission using a 6" bolt that attached to the camera mount and an existing bolt hole on the transmission. The monitor was mounted on the dash. Total installation time was...

RTV X1140 Lift Kit

mercredi 3 août 2022

Just wondering if anyone has used the lift kit available through Kubota dealers and online retailers. I know Demon Powersports makes them. Says they engineered for longevity and hard use without harming your factory suspension. Thinking about installing one on my X1140.

2014 X1100C

Looking for transmission parts and have been unsuccessful. We had an issue with it moving forward in 2 WD so we pulled the transmission out. The Bearing for the pinion gear was completely gone and egged out the hold for the bearing, not sure its repairable, so I am looking for either the front cover that mounts to the bellhousing, a whole case or a whole transmission. Willing to pay shipping or travel if need be. Located in WI

X1140 Gun Rack

mardi 2 août 2022

Anyone put a gun rack on their X1140? I have hard cases for my bow and firearms but I am considering if it is possible to put a gun rack on the X1140. I found an overhead gun rack from Seizmik but I am not sure how well it would work on the X1140. Suggestions welcome.
