I have the RTV x1100c 2020 with MS tires and lights front and rear. Installed the Boss V Plow myself for a deal at the time at 2800. Works great and have not needed chains so far with snowfalls up to 1 ft or so. The protective screen is prone to catch stuff between the load bed and the screen and if not careful will buckle the screen. Happened to me

What type of material are you catching in the screen & bed??

when hauling firewood or loading in brush and sticks

Hi Swampy6, I'm over in NH, I'm about to put an order in for a RTV-X1100C
I'm trying to decide what options I should add at build, definitely want a V plow similar to yours, what model is that BOSS plow? I probably going to need chains here in the winter. What options did you have installed at build? Dealer here told me very few folks op for the Snow Blower since the clearance can be a problem definitely with uneven terrain. Dealer here also reccomends BOSS V plow over Kubota V.

I have the same setup. Here is my invoice.

I found the plow shoes not to be worth the money. They dig in on softer grounds and are not needed on pavement

Hi I took my RTV1100 C with the PTO drive/K-connect on my land for the first time today. I was initially concerned about the clearance; however, after tooling around today I don’t think it will be a problem.

I am going with the BOSS V-plow, dealer installed, and similar to you Coobie going with rear tail light protectors, spray in Bed liner, cv joint guards front/rear, mud guards front/rear,turn signal kit. 2 Mirrors, and sun visors. Wiring is there for radio with antennae so I'm going to do and after market radio, dealer says it's a tough listen with the diesel engine. I'm going with the Real-tree color.

My RTV-X1100C was delivered at the end of January but one of the options ordered not installed was the front mud guards - was told they were back ordered. It's going on almost two months and still no front mud guards. I've checked with them and still no ETA. Installation was included in the price but I told them I'd install when they arrive if they threw in a couple of filters.

I also installed an after market radio:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CG8N0H8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I actually only paid $28.00 two months ago.

It works fine except when I turn on the Kubota optional LED Work Lights at the same time and then it kills the radio reception - USB and Bluetooth still work fine. I think the LED's put out some kind of interference so probably the conventional halogen work lights would have worked better.

Did you need to get an adapter for the radio?

Did you need to get an adapter for the radio?

Yes - purchased on eBay:

Kubota male plug female pin connector.

The adapters are here, just cut of the female end, cheaper, but not sure if shipping would push up the price.

Was $3.00 NOW $1.85 each. Male / female ends connected with 10" wires. 9 conductors.

For those folks that recently purchased KUBOTA XC1100 s , my 2016 I bought without radio, but I saw that the headliner already has the 2 speakers and wires in place, so just a aftermarket radio and the adapter shown in above post , is all that was required for my 2016 kubota. Simple install.

 

[m7040]

Just installed the radio shown in post 132. Works like a charm

Hey guys I'm going to seal the deal on my X1000C order tomorrow with the BOSS RTV V-Plow, what options would you recommend for the V-Plow? Here's a list I found on the BOSS website, wasn't sure if the SMARTHITCH option is really necessary? thanks.

Little late with a reply.

I have the 78" Kubota V Plow - I ordered spare steel cutting edges but they were the same part # for each side - curious why there're listed as passenger and driver side on your list - maybe they are the same part #. Also curious on how fast a poly cutting edge will last - seems to me it will wear a lot faster than steel. I'm not sure how long my original steel cutting edges will last but I wanted a spare set just in case when they do need replacement that I won't be faced with Kubota no longer having them available.

The casters are fantastic for being able to roll the plow anywhere you need it in storage off season.

The poly edge is great but not poly... it is a hard rubber about 3/4” thick but works great to prevent damage to asphalt surfaces.

Everything else is not needed

I'm not sure why I didn't post this but this was at the dealers after the installation of the plow.

Swampy6........I was just going to ask this.......I just ordered the Boss 6.6 vee plow for my new RTV 1100C and I was wondering if you could still use the grill guard. Looks like you can!

One other question, my Boss dealer wasn't sure........do you still have access to the front receiver hitch in the summer with the low off? Because I had my winch put on a receiver mount from Orange Aftermarket so that I could use it front or rear.

We looked at the install manual and it does look like the plow mount harness has a square hole in it?

 

[mmancuso13]

You can access the front hitch with the V-plow off for the summer but the access is cramped to place your hitch pin.

You may also have to “adjust” the placement of the hitch pin for your winch because it looks like the depth of the front hitch pin receiver placement is not standard - I have had to drill new pin holes in a couple of cases.

 

[Paystar]

Thanks mmancuso13. As long as it's do-able I'm happy. I like the option of using my winch on either end.
I got the mount and harnesses from Orange Aftermarket, along with the rear protection plate.
