I had not heard that concerning the WIX filters ptsg, Thanks for the heads up. I can have them get Baldwin for me next time I do a change on the hydraulics.
Hey Phantom, I have the RK37 which is made by TYM. All the original filters had TYM markings so rather than drive a 40 mile round trip to the dealer I get my filters from my local moms and pops auto parts store. They were able to cross all the TYM filters I've needed so far to WIX numbers. They...
I looked at my manual for the RK37 and it says to change the oil ever 250 hours or one year which ever comes first. I don't change mine annually but most manufacturers, both vehicle and oil, recommend yearly due to the fact that oil contains chemicals that fight wear plus absorb moisture from...
I don't have a clutch on my hydrostatic but bumping between fwd/rev didn't work this time until after probably 20 - 25 minutes of messing with it. This time was probably the worst I've had with it. I only posted this to let others that had then same thought as me that with time it'll get...
It's been about 20 months since my last post above and I've put about 60 additional hours on my tractor. I can't see much improvement in moving the range selector level over this time. A few days ago I drove my tractor to the gas station to fuel it up before pulling a trailer with 3 rolls of...
Allstar45, I have the RK37HC made by TYM. It has the same issue even though it's hydrostatic. I have 240 hours on mine and thought it would get better with wear but it hasn't. I use medium range 95% of the time but do use high if driving on the road to the gas station or just riding around the...
I know most folks on here say they wouldn't buy a tractor from Rural King but for those that would you might find this interesting. I received a sale flier from RK by email today and noticed that they have a small add that says end of year sale of 10% off all models of tractors. I went to their...
Ryan, I bought my RK37HC back in 2018 and it has always had a slight creep when stopped on a hard surface. I asked the mechanic about it and he said it was a simple adjustment. I just used the parking brake and never worried about it but I did drive away a couple times with the brake on until I...
I ordered the hydraulic line last Friday the 25th. The guy ordering it said that of it was in stock it would take about a week to get it but if it had to come from Korea he had no way of even guessing. Evidently it was in stock because I got a call yesterday afternoon that the part was in...
I think the mystery is solved. My neighbor was over helping me top some very large trees that had snapped over during the hurricane. Mentioning it to him he said maybe a second set of eyes would help. He crawled under the tractor while i pressed on the pedal with my hand. A couple minutes...
I took a few minutes this afternoon and crawled back under the tractor. Taking pics wouldn't do much good because there are steel hydraulic lines and so forth running through the same area. it would be hard to tell what parts are trans linkage. TractorTYMe, it's not an issue with hydraulic...
