Here is a picture of an RTV1100 2009 Coolant System; You mentioned it had not thermostat and was still overheating. You cleaned the rad no difference. New fan no difference. Suggestions; Remove hoses from rad and flush hoses and engine (with thermostat out) by forcing water into lower hose...

The differential lock for the rear end works by pressing extremely hard on the pedal, then pull the knob to lock the pedal in the down position. Now slowly release the pressure on the pedal and it should lock in the down position. You will know it is locked when the pedal stays down. To...

Steve, Do you have a manual? My knowledge of the servo screw, is this; If you have adjusted it and now don't know were it is set at, then turn it in until it reaches bottom, back the screw out 1 1/2 turns. The range is 0 to 3 turns, with 1 1/2 being the middle. From this point you never go...

For all you Polaris 4 wheelers out there. The number 1 reason for front drive failure is this little note in your owners manual. Notice: Switching to AWD while the rear wheels are spinning may cause severe drive shaft and clutch damage. Always switch to AWD while the rear...

As the suspension travel varies up and down I suspect you would find it probably goes to straight or toe in when compressed. MotorSeven, I'll bet if you put a 1/8" spacer on the front side of the rear tire on the right side between your metal rod and the tire that 5/8" measurement would change...

Put your bars just on the front tires and adjust the toe out. Then re-center the steering. Possible reasons for difference you see when measuring from the rear wheels. Slight frame twist Left or right rear wheel arms bent Left or right front wheel arms bent Accumulated slop in pivot bushings...

Saw a home built, or least the beginnings of one, 4 wheeler with a drawing showing the frame and the some pictures of ATV tires attached with axles. Can't find it again, was interested in seeing how it was progressing. Seen in the last month or so. Anyone know of such a post?

You can't get if off because the brake adjuster is probably holding the old brake shoes out against the brake drum. See the parts diagram here, number 17 is the adjuster. So for the right front you need to reach in from the back side of the brake plate and move that notched wheel toward the...

Yes I like that idea of a short cable. That 50' cable will soon get bunched up on the winch spool after a month of use. Then it binds on the cross bolts that hold the winch together making it very hard to get free. Been there done that. The other point would be the 6" extensions. I found my...

JJ, It's the other valve I'm looking at. Looking at a plow control where 4 of these would control the pressure to cylinders for up/down/left/right through a 4 way toggle switch.

Want to use one spool to control two push/pull cylinders. Have used the 12V Dc 2 position 6 way selector valve. Could I have used 2 of the 12V oc da solenoid valve? Does anyone have a picture of the other side of this valve?

Not sure what year you have, probably doesn't matter in this case, but my 2009 RTV1100 worked well in 8 degree temps with a windchill that put it down even further. First thoughts would be to change the fluid. Sounds like weak pump pressure or perhaps bad steering box. You need a manual to...

According to this page, you need to replace the parts. I'm assuming any scratches would hamper the smooth engagement of this unit and ruin how the transmission reacts. Possibly sticking and not allowing it to shift to high, the possible cause of your troubles.

Perhaps these will help. Doesn't look like too big a job. Easy for me to say eh!:laughing: RTV1100 but the 900 version would much the same. Everything is under that one cover.

Put my Curtis plow mount on a New Year's weight reducing program and this is what I came up with. I designed it with light and easy install in mind. Plus gained a ton of ground clearance. And now lifts the plow 20" of the ground with a 10" cylinder. With original bumper/winch/curtis plow mount...

Is a pressure relief block like this one pictured here required when using a 12v selector valve? Or does the selector valve, from Surplus Center, have it's own release? I bent one of my bolts holding the swing cylinders and am wondering if it was because i did not re-install the relief block...

I have one of these valves and am looking to connect 3 cylinders to it. So all 6 lines plus the pressure and return line will be used. I'll use the side ports for P and T lines, but of course must use the top 6 ports for the working lines...

Was thinking the other day of an easy way to lube my dump box pins and door hinges on my RTV1100. Machinists will laugh at this method and others will just giggle, but I think it still beats removing the pins or drilling and adding grease nipples. Or do as most have done, don't ever grease...

Does anyone know what the Blue connector located behind the panel by the Orange differential lock button is used for? It has 4 wires, Black, Red/Yellow, Green/White, and Blue. Can't seem to find any reference in the manual, but must be for an additional piece of equipment.
