Fix that Roxor Step if you have Puppies

mardi 31 octobre 2023

Dixie just got her leg caught in the Roxor step and broke her front leg late this evening. The bone didn't break the skin yet and so we will be going to the vet first thing in the am. She is being still and not moving around so am relieved for that. Will keep ya'll informed.

Another “light bar on a RTV” thread

lundi 30 octobre 2023

The 21.5 Hella Black Magic light bar seemed like a good fit so I sprung for it. Hella has a well deserved, long standing reputation on the high quality automotive lighting industry.

starting the kubota 1100 in cold weather

jeudi 26 octobre 2023

i learned something new this morning while starting the 1100. the temp here was 2 degrees F with light wind. i already had anti gell in the fuel so i knew that wouldn't be a problem, so what i learned was that i had to glow the engine for 1 min and continue cranking to assist the engine as it was running but would die without the starter. the new biggie for me anyway was the discovery that if you fudge back on the key while cranking you can glow while the starter is engaged. that caused the...

Best Wheel Tire for X1140 Utility???

RTV X1140 orange I just purchased new and would like to lift it 2" and add 27" turf style tires as it will spend a lot of time in our yard. Anyone have suggestions on a wheel tire combination?


Best Wheel Tire for X1140 Utility???

Found a much improved headlamp upgrade.

Last summer I replaced the #896 halogen lamp with an LED replacement. I bought these off of amazon;

Antline Extremely Bright 50W High Power 881 889 886 894 896 LED Fog Light Bulbs Xenon White for DRL or Fog Lights (Packs of 2)

I was very disappointed. They are worse than the OEM lamps. Now that I'm working on dressing out the new 1100C, I found these from Alla Lighting. The model is 881-FL-BH-HL;

I installed them last night and the difference is dramatic. The...

Using A RTV on the road

mardi 24 octobre 2023

In my state, you can register a RTV for off highway use, which will allow you to drive it on any road that is maintained by the county. My plates just came in the mail today from the dealership. For Tennessee, it is registered as a Class 1 Off Highway Vehicle. I am still keeping the SMV sign on the back window screen. I may mount the plate next to the SMV sign. Does the state you live in allow you to run your RTV on the county roads?

26XL Almost Dies Randomly With Blue Smoke

Hello! First time tractor owner here with a 2017. I've only had it for about 3 months and have a random issue. In the 3 months I've owned it, 4-5 times it does what the title states, for about 2-3 minutes, after which it pulls out of it and rpm's return to normal. During the sputtering, the rpm's fluctuate up and down, as low as 500, and most of 1500, even with wide open throttle. No lights on dash. When it was received, all servicing had been completed. These instances have happened in...

VW Water Pump

How this for ironic? The other day I got a spam email to join a class action lawsuit against VW over cracking plastic water pumps. I deleted it right away because I haven't had a failure yet on this Tiguan and these suits are usually BS anyway.

Well, the very next day guess what just failed? LOL

X1100c power

I have an x1100c with 800 hours that is new to me. I just changed all of the fluids and filters. The one filter on the transmission came with a “magnetic” ring for the purpose of catching any metal debris. The filter I replaced did not have one and after the replacement the unit will not go over 19 miles per hour. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am considering removing the filter and discarding the magnetic ring.

Quick Hitch

vendredi 20 octobre 2023

Went an picked up another quick hitch today. This time for my 67 Ford 3000 diesel. I lucked out.
I got one back in 2014 for my Kubota B2620. Went with the B.E. (Braber Equipment) because it looked identical to the Land Pride (which all my implements are except for the chipper/shredder) but it was exactly half the price. Have not had an issue with it.

So today I saw a sales flyer from Peavey Mart (our old TSC here in Ontario Canada that got bought out) and they were on sale for $200, regular...

rtv x1140 power steering question

I have a new to me x1140. As I drive it and the hydraulic oil warms up, I start hearing a sucking sound (fluid flowing) from the power steering controller under the steering wheel when turning the steering wheel. there is no sound when the wheel isn't turning. the oil in the tank under the front passenger seat is full. I'm thinking this is normal but wanted to ask others since I've never owned a kabota utv before.

RTV 1100 and X1100 doors

The drivers side door on my X1100 has become increasingly difficult to open from the inside. So today I decided to see what the problem was. While I didn't see any thing obviously wrong with the mechanism I did notice some surface rust at the bottom of the door by the weep holes. Additionally I have seen quite a few 1100's for sale wit the bottom of the doors ate up with rust. Does any one have a good way to keed the doors from rusting out? I did spray a ton of fluid film down there...

Upgrade from X1120 to X1100C - Anyone Do This?

dimanche 15 octobre 2023

Rolling up on retirement and reduction in income, we are considering replacing our 1120 with an 1100 now so we can stay busy even when the weather is not great. We would have to work a deal with the dealer to trade in the 1120 and our 9n plus a bunch of implements and cash. I doubt our dealer would go for it but just speculating right now. My questions would be:

1. I am 6'2" and am told the cab has a little less leg room. True/False?
2. Looks like the 1100 is a little slower - is that...

Winter is coming: Windshield for XG850 Sidekick?

Saw one of my neighbors yesterday. He rode a couple miles to my place in his Polaris Ranger. I noticed the windshield and got envious. I hated driving my RTV-900 at it's glacially slow speed in the winter; I'm going to hate it even more with my far more nimble and speedier Sidekick.

What windshields do you guys have and what do you recommend? The Kubota/Orange-whatevertheirnameis is glass, which is the Gold standard. But it also comes with a Gold price. My neighbor was happy with his...

EV lawn mowers: Fad or useful tool?

dimanche 8 octobre 2023

They have now come out with battery powered ZTR lawn mowers. Anybody own one? How much grass can can one mow and how many high priced battery modules installed does it take to mow that much grass?
Another issue plaguing EV, is battery fires. Just like EV cars, electric scooters, hover boards, phones, etc, I would think that battery fires would be an issue, especially when you park the battery powered mower in a garage or a shed.
This was from 2022. Dewalt had an experimental battery ZTR...

1100c Bedliner question

A dealer is prepping a 1100c for me. I have had a plastic bed liner in my 900 since new. It has earned it’s keep and has protected the steel from countless scrapes and bumps.

The dealer has been advised that since the new machine has a spray in bedliner, the plastic one will not fit. I really have been sold on the advantages based on my 18 years of experience of having this accessory. He has to order three per Kubota rules, and is unwilling to do so. So far I have not found another...

2014 x1140 Transmission Problems.

I am new to this forum... hello! I recently purchased an auction 2014 x1140. It was used by a golf course as a drink cart. The number of nip bottles and joint ends that i cleaned out of it would suggests that the operators were mostly drunk or stoned. The engine runs fantastically, but it does not move (it was cheap). I bought it knowing that I will need to put some $$ into it. I am not scared of doing the needed repairs, but i am hoping you guys can help me diagnose the problem.

RTV Daily uses, What did you do today with your RTV?

I finally got my RTV back from the dealer. While there fixing the linkage that slipped out of sync, I had a few other things done that by themselves were not worthy of a trip to the dealer. Left melted headlight fixed, fuel gauge replaced (it had been intermittent but turns out it was the gauge, no labor for replacing). I also had tubes put in the rear tires and I got the hand throttle yall had been talking about. Awesome.

So today I used the tractor FEL to load gravel in the RTV and...
