I've used Gorilla Glue with good results to glue some tears in the vinyl. I would think it would work well to glue the cushion down as well.

My knobby tires were leaking at the base of the knobs. You had to flex the knob to see the leak with some soapy water brushed on the area.

With a little over 2000hrs on my 2006 Gator I had to replace my starter. We use it every day and start and stop the machine faily often. Was pretty sure it was the solenoid that was not fully engaging, but was able to replace the whole starter with an aftermarket on ebay. The Denso OEM from Deere runs $400. They started carrying an aftermarket themselves which they offer for $150. The ebay item was $75. Comes with a 1 year warranty so we shall see. It comes with the solenoid as well so I figured I'm getting a new solenoid, new brushes, and new clutch for far less if I tried to rebuild the old one. Was easy to replace too. Remove the main 12 volt wire , unplug 12 volt switch and remove two bolts. Took me about 15 minutes.

Definitely check the tension on your drive chains.

I guess I have 2 questions related to this thread. Is it safe to say the HPX model does not have this issue? And anyone hearing about this problem in the EFI Kawasaki Mules?

Have you looked at the Newer Spreader. It works great for 2 or 3 horses. You can maneuver it in stalls by hand and can be pulled by a small tractor or ATV right out to the pastures to spread. Simple, American made design.

If battery checks OK, check your ground connection at the tractor chassis.

A screeching sound is more likely the brakes, if you are describing a sound that occurs while braking. They are wet brakes inside the transmission. Changing the trans fluid usually helps. JD also makes an additive to reduce the noise. How many hours on the machine?

JD makes a trans/hyraulic additive called PEMO tractor hydraulic fluid friction modifier. Comes in a 12 oz bottle. Added 2 oz to the trans fluid and has helped a lot with reducing the brake noise.

Thanks guys. The belt is on in the right direction. I downloaded the manual mentioned but it is for the older 6x4 model and even though the machines are different, there still is alot of good info. The gator like I mentioned is working great, drives smooth, has lots of power,etc. I thought I might be able to avoid a more expensive fix down the road by just investigating the jerky movement now. I'll have to wait and see if it gets worse.

Do you have any play in the throttle cable at the gas pedal end? There is a threaded adjustment there to allow for some free play. This may help.
