The 850 GX Sidekick is a very nice machine and fast for sure. I had looked at one during my search but what for what my intention for a machine was, having the factory full cab was a better fit for what I was looking to do with it. Thank you, Tom

I thought I would add a progress report. I have removed the hydraulic tank and filter and started to drain some of the lines. The fluid was much more milky than I thought but I am hopeful that it has not caused too much wear on the machine. Additionally, this process has given me the...

That is a great point! Flushing with new cheap oil is way better than the watered-down Kubota oil that is in it now . Thanks for your help, Tom

Last night I pulled the lines for the snow plow and blew them out with compressed air. Your post got me thinking that I may just disconnect all lines and pull all of the cylinders and clear those out too. The reservoir tank is only held in with 1 strap and has 2 lines going to it. I may pull the...

Yes the oil is a milky yellow white color. Unfortunately, I have verified that the oil is throughout the entire system. Thank you Tom My plan was to drain and fill the system a few times to flush out the water. I purchased the machine less than 2 weeks ago and knew that there was an issue...

My new-to-me 2010 RTV1100 has water in the hydraulic fluid. I am not sure how the prior owner got it in there but the oil is a milky color and now I have to figure out how to get it out. My initial thought was to do a couple fluid changes but at $96 a 5-gallon bucket for Kubota UDT2 that...

One thing that I noticed after I painted everything was that the Kubota ROPS spray paint doesn't have the same gloss sheen as the factory paint. Looking at the can, it is labeled semi-gloss. Is there a Kubota ROPS gloss spray paint and if there is, does anyone happen to know the PN#. Thanks, Tom

Thanks for the kind compliment. I have often thought of purchasing a plasma cutter and hope to do so one day. A CNC would certainly be amazing but I think that I would have a hard time trying to convince my wife that it is a must have for the garage. I have however tried my hand at tig welding...

I then ground and scuffed the entire area and added 2 coats of POR-15. The only thing I hate about POR-15 is that it runs on vertical surfaces. Fortunally I did not yet scuff the paint on the frame rails and I was able to use a razor in the morning to remove almost all of the running drips...

A recently picked up a new-to-me 2010 RTV-1100CRV. Overall the machine is in great shape but is in need of a few repairs and service to get it to a point where it will be around for years to come. The biggest and most intensive repair was removing the rusted floor pan and and welding in a new...

Thanks for the help tiredguy. What I had been considering was a tire and rims set. The price was right at only a few hundred dollars. But it sounds like I may want to let this deal pass to someone else. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

So it has been quite some time since my last inquire but life seems to put things on hold sometimes. But here is where things are today. I have the opportunity to purchase a used set of tires off of a 2007 Kubota. The tire size is 27x8.5-15 (front) and 15x19.5 (rear). Tire rolling...

It sounds to me that it may be an ignition switch issue. Have you confirmed that your ignition switch is turning off power to the glow plugs? Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

My 1977 B7100 meter starts ticking time as soon as I turn the key to the on position. If it isn't, have you confirmed that the meter actually works. My 1st suggestion would be to confirm that it does by hooking it to a power supply. My clock give off an audible ticking sound. Sent from my...

Looks like the 2015 B2601 tire and rim set may work with a bit of modification. I have calculated the rolling ratio for both sets and the ratio calculates within 0.06 of each other. (The turf tires are 1.49/1 and the R4 tires are 1.55/1.) What do you all think? If the ratio is acceptable...

I recently purchased a 1987 B7200 with turf tires that I would like to swap out for R4's. The current tire size is 31-13.5 15 rear and 20.5-8 10 front. The issue I am having is that the rims on the rear are too wide to accommodate an R4. So I need to get a narrower rear rim to accommodate the...
