Bonafide Farmer

[Hector Torres]

Hi:

I'm a farmer, located in Puerto Rico and dedicated entirely to plantains and pineapple. The size of my farm is 127 acres, some of which is in "resting stage".
I have a John Deere tractor and a Kubota RTV 900 which I used to the day to day inspections. Such a utility vehicle - Kubota RTV 900 - is manual dump, but I want to convert it into hydraulic. The original kit from Kubota is quite expensive, so I want to buy a cheaper one and the instructions.

Hector,

Here's a link to a gas-assist lift kit for a RTV900: Kubota RTV900 - Lift Assist Kit - Depco, Inc. I don't know the price, but it should be considerably less than a hydraulic kit. It's nice to be able to raise and lower the bed with hydraulics, but the lift assist might be a reasonable alternative.
