Good eyes! And my call is KE8QOC. - 73

Yes, the bumper sort of blocks the view of the tailights. The bumper does come with fairly heavy duty steel taillight relocation brackets which I did not install. The relocation brackets move the taillights up so they sit directly in the gap between the bumper and the bottom of the bed which in...

I have a complete exhaust system from a 2023 RTV X1140 for sale if anyone needs it. Includes exhaust manifold and muffler and muffler hanger bracket. Practically brand new and not a scratch or dent or rust anywhwere. Was removed from my machine at 45.5 hours on the clock when I installed the...

Just wanted to give an update and report on the Turbo and my impressions after putting about 55 hours on the Turbo. I LOVE IT! Couldn't be happier and would do it again. No issues whatsoever and the sound is just awesome. I know I could still put more fuel to it as I am only running about 9.5...

Quick reply on the Extreme Metal Products bumper. After no response from the manufacturer, I just went ahead and ordered the bumper even though they say it only fits the X1100C and the X1120D and they were unsure if it work on the 2023 models. I have a plasma cutter, grinder, and welder in my...

Yep, emailed them twice over the last 2 weeks. No reply from them whatsoever. That's why I asked here.

Does anyone know if the Extreme Metal Products rear bumper for the Kubota RTV X1100C and RTV X1120D will work on a RTV X1140? Has anyone installed one on thier X1140? I have not had a close look at those models but I would think the bed pivot points, where these bumper bolt to, would be fairly...

I installed a full guage package on my 2023 RTV X1140. I have done tach, EGT, boost, oil temp, oil pressure, water temp, volts, HST fluid temp, and am working on a HST pressure guage now using a HPOP guage and an older Ford ICP sending unit. For the tach, use a diesel specific tach. These are...

WSM state 9.9 PSI at low idle and 42.7 - 63.9 PSI at rated speed. Mine typically starts at 60+ PSI at idle cold and when up to operating temp the PSI is about 30 at low idle and 45 PSI at speed. This is with Kubota 15W40 oil. Mine is turbo'ed and low idle is set at 1500 RPM. I have my high idle...

I did a full set of guages on my RTV X1140. I did oil pressure, oil temp, water temp, HST fluid temp, volts, boost, EGT's, tachometer, and I am working on a HST pressure guage setup using a GlowShift HPOP guage and a older ford ICP sending unit to monitor HST pressures in real time. You will...

I turned out my max fuel again this weekend. I went another 1 full turn. I would estimate I am 2 1/2 turns out from the .650" I originally had it set at. Running wide open in high in a soft muddy field with 3"-4" of snow with 4 adults and maybe 500lbs of gear in bed, my EGT's were running 1100...

I agree as well. And ggmanning, you went this far with it, now you need to turbo it! If you are a turbo diesel guy like me, you won't regret it. $$$$$ but I would definitely do it again.

Glad to see I'm not the only guy saying screw the warranty on my new machine! Congrats on the new X1130!

Another note I forgot to mention in my other posts. You can increase fueling by rotating the fuel delivery plates counter clockwise as far as they will go. Loosen the 2 tamper proof torx screws on each plate and rotate the plates counter clockwise. You will see gaps in the screw slots when far...

I'll chime in and agree with aurthuritis says. Been pretty busy last few days to get much more tuning done on mine yet but have backed the max fuel screw out 3/4 turns from the .650" i originally had it at. I have my max high idle set at 3600 RPM now. Still no real smoke. There is a little smoke...

Thanks again aurthuritis! I'm starting to understand this machine a bit better now. Is there such a thing of too much charge pressure in the HST then? I believe the WSM stated 60-120 PSI if my memory is good. How high is too high for the charge pressure? I guess I will test some things tonight...

Thanks aurthuritis. I will give this a go when I get home from work. My high idle speed is 3650 RPM right now which is 550 more RPM than the way the factory had it setup. I will keep an eye on boost and EGT's tonight. I know the instructions in my kit stated to keep max boost around 8-10 PSI. Is...

Forgot to mention that through this entire process the top speed has never changed. It was 24 - 25 MPH on the factory dash before any mods. After the lift and tires the dash would read 16 - 17 MPH and was 24.4 - 24.8 MPH on GPS. After turbo install it ran 24.8 MPH on GPS top speed last night. I...

aurthuritis, my probe is before the turbo. And what are the actual limits of the transmission case? And what about max EGT's? I've heard anywhere from 1100 degrees to 1500 degrees is max. I know the WSM states that max pressure is 3980 PSI but I honestly don't think I can adjust it any higher...

For people who see this thread looking for answers, I copied and pasted my findings here from my other thread. OK, here's the update. Just finished up the turbo installation and fueling adjustments. Also did the HST optimization procedure and adjusted the charge pressure and the high pressure...
