    RTV900 rear brake cylinders do not return to free

    Has anyone seen this where you start to go either direction and it feels like the brake is on? I hardly ever use the brake but it seems to apply itself. There are 2 cylinders on the back and when it wants to drag these "wheel" cylinders are extended some. I use a screw driver like a pry bar, I...

    M6040 3 point adjustment

    I am working on a M6040 hydr 4x4 with cab and loader. It has a cat 1 disc on it. The 3 pt won't lift it off the ground more than 4" and when you cross a road the front row of discs hit the road hard enough to bend a few. Can or should the feedback control adjustment be used to raise the lift...

    M5950 bucket uncurls

    This tractor has been well used before I got it, but I need to keep it going and safe. The bucket/forks uncurl in just a few minutes. I have no leaking hoses. How do I tell if it's in the control lever assembly or a cylinder or something else? If it's a cylinder how do I tell if it's left or...

    M5950DT front wheel intermittently locking up

    I've had this tractor running for 63 hours now. I had to overhaul the engine when I got it. I had no idea how much I needed a tractor until I got this one. Yesterday The right front wheel started acting like it was going to seize. It would stop for a second and as soon as it got the pressure...

    M5950DT Injection pump leak

    It's been 40 hours since I rebuilt the engine and had the injection pump rebuilt. The engine runs great, starts instantly and hasn't used any oil. I'm happy. However I do have a fuel leak. I thought it was hydraulic fluid because it's all over the filter. I see after pulling the side hood that...

    D1703-m-bg

    I don't know if this will help anyone here but this seemed like a fair price for new. It is however a 1800 RPM engine so maybe just pump and generator use? I doubt it will go in a RTV...

    RTV900 bed fabrication question

    I just bought a 2008 RTV900. It was used as a trash truck in an RV park. It had a dump bed more like a dumpster. It pivoted at 4'6" above the ground. It wasn't going to work for me. Does anyone have a RTV900 with the dump bed that could post or send me the critical dimensions? front to back left...

    M5950DT FEL slow

    After the engine rebuild I've finally put the FEL back on and redid the bushings and pins. I'm ready to use the FEL for the first time. It is so slow to raise that it's boring to watch. I looked up the specs and it says 6.4 seconds for full lift of the arms. When I tried to time the raise I...

    M1840A repair

    Sloppy pins and no bushings is what I see. I've got the FEL off for an engine overhaul. Before I put it back on I want to address the broken bushings where the main arms attach to the towers. The tower mounting "sleeves" were broken loose. These are a non replaceable part. The rams for raise...

    12.4-24 and 5.00-15 tires and wheels SOLD SOLD These are Kubota wheels and center pieces. They look like new. The rear tires are almost new. The fronts have some wear but should still last a very long time. They will fit L2850F. Maybe others also. I received them with a tractor I bought...

    M5950DT overhaul

    I just bought this M5950 knowing #1 had bad compression. Apparently they had been eithering it to get it started. I added a second ground cable to make it crank faster and it starts fine without either but only 2 cylinders run. I pulled the head and took out the pistons hoping to replace the...
