I am working on a lift for the front of my Kubota RTV. I started it a couple years ago for lifting a plow but then we didn't get much snow that year so I didn't have to get it done. Then got the Toolcat so don't really need the plow on the RTV anymore.
I made a mount for the front of the RTV with ears for connecting a plow and a 2" hitch receiver for the lift.
I had lost one of the pieces of steel I cut for the lift and didn't do anything since. I am trying to get it working so I can use the broom the get gravel off the lawn. Hopefully I can get it working before the grass is grown up too much.
I got it welded up today and now need to pickup pins and hoses.

Re: Lift for front of Kubota RTV
Hopefully it works out somewhat decent. The hydraulic connections are all the way at the back. I need to string lines up to the front. I got an electric selector valve that I am planning on adding so can lift and turn the plow. I will skip that for now since the broom only needs the lift.
I would prefer to use metal line but will probably just run hoses since it will be quicker and easier to get.

Re: Lift for front of Kubota RTV
Looks like this project will not be completed any time soon. I was having trouble finding the correct fittings locally for the hydraulics. I need to run lines all the way from the back to the front.
I just cobbled the broom together and used the winch to lift it.
I think I will move on to fixing the broken brush mower. Gearbox gears stripped. Going to have to pull it and see if I can find something that can replace it. It is around $700 for one from Bradco.
