RTV X1100 new speakers

vendredi 30 juin 2023

I made a rear speaker mount and installed two 6.5 inch Polk DB 651 speakers. The sound is much better and I can hear and understand my music. I am thinking about making these, what do you think.

Hand throttle on RTV-X vehicles

jeudi 29 juin 2023

I have been reading up and watching videos that were posted way back since early the Jan 2021 (on this and a number of other Forums), on the benefits of adding a hand throttle to RTV-Xs, and on similar and earlier Kubota models.
It seems the major reason advocating a hand throttle is to raise the base engine speed and torque to drive the snow plows and similar attachments at the correct RPM (and torque). But in real terms, a hand throttle has a broader role to play.

Looking at most...

Does the rear axle have to come apart to install it?

mercredi 28 juin 2023

I have a 2011 RTV 1100, and I broke a rear axle because both sides were shot when I bought this. I've bought all new bearings, seals, and two new axles, but I'm stumped on how to get it back together. I usually just pay the dealer whatever they want for these things, but this job was going to cost more than most used side by sides.

The axles come assembled, with those permanent (I think) boot clamps on the boots. From what I see, I'm going to have to knock apart the u-joints or cut off one...

The RTV-XG850 Throttle Design Flaw - any Fixes?

As I wrote on TBN a few minutes ago:

I consider it a major safety issue, personally. I was ready and - I thought prepared - for it and I was still surprised by it. It is very easy to have an out of control forward or rearward acceleration with this thing. Furthermore, doing fine work - like spraying around buildings, trees etc. or moving it to service it on the rack - is extremely difficult and frustrating.

There is simply no excuse for this condition to still exist after almost 3 years...

1120D - Steering When Not Running

lundi 26 juin 2023

Last weekend, the seven year old battery died in our X1120. I was able to get it going again with a jump pack and taking a replacement battery to install this coming weekend. I have never dived into hydro-static steering or how it works. But I understand the steering wheel is not directly connected to the steering arm or tie rod ends. It is instead connected to actuator valves.

If this is true, do you have steering when the RTV becomes disabled and you have to tow it with the steering...

T4.85 showing 2098 code

Any ideas on the 2098 code. What I can find is an electronic issue with the dump valve. I replaced the coil on the valve and still have the issue. Fine when cool, as it gets to operating temp it will code. Self clears after a few minutes. Example, 20 bales to unload and stack, on bale 17 it coded. Coded 5 more times on the last 3 bales. Next day same thing only coded on bale 16. Dealer says it’s electrical but I’m not so sure. Only other symptoms is hydraulic pressure/flow drops off as it...

B21 Bogs down for no apparent reason

dimanche 25 juin 2023

I have a 1999 B21 that was abused by it's previous owner. It runs great in a straight line. When I turn hard to the left or the right, it starts blowing black smoke and bogs down. That means it;s acting like it's under a heavy load. I've also noticed that if I start moving the bucket up and down when it starts doing that, then it starts to run right but only as long as I'm moving the bucket. This makes me think that the problem could somehow be in the hydraulics...

I'm totally confused.

mercredi 21 juin 2023

Well after being on Team Blue for 17 years I sold my little New Holland in 2020 and bought a Kubota L3301. After a little less than 3 years of ownership I traded the Kubota for a new John Deere 3039r. It goes along with the little LT150 that I picked up for a steal last year from a co-worker because he couldn't get it to start.

I had the Deere setup for a 3rd function on the front for a hopefully soon to come manure fork with a grapple. I also had them convert the loader from the Deere Hook...

Hydraulic filter problems

I took my hydraulic filter off, which is underneath the tractor. (YM 2000) and in front of the transmission. Cleaned it and tried to reinstall it, but there seems to be something in the hole where the filter goes, causing the filter not to go in all the way. Any help appreciated. Txs. Pumba/timone

How long did your RTV-X Battery Last?

mardi 20 juin 2023

Had a great Father's Day weekend with all my kids in attendance and the RTV got a good workout. On the last ride, my Son in law was putting it away so we could pack up and it wouldn't turn over. When you would turn on the key, I saw an ERR1 and an ERR2 on the information display. Assuming it was a low battery condition, I used my jump pack and she fired right off.

Due to an approaching storm, I decided to just yank out the battery and bring it home to test/charge. The little green eye on...

Need rear shocks anybody know how to get them for less than a root canal?

samedi 17 juin 2023

I broke a rear drive axle u-joint, so I have it all apart and I discovered that the passenger shock was mounted backwards and had broken itself. I'm guessing the factory did that, but it could have been the previous owner. It was obviously wrong because the bump stop didn't even point at the frame.

The shock is a Showa 100401, and appears to be a typical $15 shock if I could find a car with it, but I can't. It looks like I can buy rusty, used shocks for about $100, or new ones from...

Roxor Helps with About Anything

We were going down the barn driveway.. next to a patch called the "lightening tree (cause lightening struck a tree there 20 years ago and it smoldered for 2 weeks). We're weaning the registered heifers and had just moved them out of the patch that morning ... but there before my eyes was a heifer with her head stuck in a tree. I said "that calf has her head stuck in that tree" ... B-i-l says "there should be none in that...

Spring under injection pump - 2009 RTV 1100 runaway diesel (continuing from 5/12/23 post)

mercredi 7 juin 2023

Our 2009 RTV1100 CW9 Worksite Model 2009 - 2011 has less than 600 hours on it. This winter it sat for 4 months, ran good for 30 minutes in May, then wouldn't even sputter. Per my 5/11/23 post, here is what I've tried, plus the last step:

- Replaced fuel filter - no start. Filled tank with filtered fuel - no start.
- Loosened injector pipes to bleed (but at that time I didn't realize there is a manual lift pump primer lever) - no start
- began removing the injector pump for visual...

JD 7130 needs help

Hello All

We have a neighbor that is having a problem with his 7130 John Deere tractor.

As near as I can tell the engine is being limited to power output I assume by the computer system.

We have a fleet of JD equipment with only one new tractor and one used recently acquired late model tractor the rest of our JD fleet ranges in age from 50 years to 20 years old. For this reason I am not familiar with the electronics on these late model tractors.

Our neighbor has an unfortunate situation...

X1100C wiring information needed

vendredi 2 juin 2023

I have a 2022 X1100C the picture shows the wiring behind the switch panel. I know the 4 spaded wires are 2 positive and 2 ground wires. The blue and white 5 pin connectors are what I am interested in. What does each control? I have attached a picture. I am currently planning to add a rear camera and most likely LED lights from and rear. I know I can wait until I am ready to mount the LEDs but I'm just curious. All wires shown are ignition controlled. 1685718083839.jpeg
