Pate I do believe that is the same engine/trans as the RZR XP. I too was very impressed with the engine-braking. Yes, your rear wheels are going backwards in low......

Yeah like 8ball said. I too watched yours at TE and commented on the radio about it. Pretty dramatic. Got a few more things done today and yesterday. I'll try to get a pic tomorrow. I've been de-modding the 800 too..........Man, undoing 3-1/2 years worth of stuff is taking a while!!!!

And sorry Phil....Do Not Drive one!!!!! I'm telling ya, the 800 is a great machine but this thing is like driving a BMW through the woods. I'm still in disbelief........I honestly think it will pull the fronts off the ground on asphalt .

I'll admit............It is nice.

They are alot smoother than an 800 too.

I am holding off. Wanting to get a Can Am Spider so the 800 will have to do (at least until the warranty runs out )

Congrats man. Enjoy. Do the pank doors fit the 900?

VDP sound-bar installed.




Reverse/area LED light installed. Kobalt toolbox installed. The tool box is going to get cut-down next week by 1-1/4 per side.



41.5 LED bar installed on custom visor. EMP 1/2 windshield. Which It's lack of quality, lack of customer-service I'll comment on later. A total waste of $153.00.



Waiting on a fuse box and one switch to get it all wired-up.

Looking good Pate!!!!!

Looking good!

Nice Pate.

41" light bar.......

I know right.....Do not look at it, especially when under the influence.......15k lumens. The suns only 5400 lumens.......

I know my 30" kicks ass. I could only imagine the 41.

You will love the light bar. Did you get a combo version that has floods on the ends and spots in the middle? Just with a 30" I can't even explain how much better you can see on trails at night. It really is a night and day difference..

Yes it's a combo. The two outer cubes (8-LEDS per side) are flood, the rest are spot. Makes the stock lights look like candles......

Looking Good Pate....

The wiring has begun....

Getting there. Finally have tunes and light!! This thing is so well though-out, it's incredible.

Got my Polaris shifter-mounted winch-switch kit done. If you've never had one of these, it's the cats-meow!! Yes, you will hit it a time or two until you are used to it being there, but after that, it's position is better than fumbling for anything else!




Winch and recovery/snatch-loops (12k rated from Tractor-Supply) installed.

Is that a truck monkey switch

Can you explain to me what that box is called and exactly how it works. Ive been looking for something like this to keep from running a bunch of wires to my battery, but didnt know what it was called. I hate wiring.

its a fuse block.

Like Craig said, it's a fuse-box. It will hold 8-circuts (fuses). Got it off E-Bay.

Ok. I'm now struggling with stereo. Same speaker-bar, with new separates, that sounded fine in my other machine. Everything's in-phase. My Pyle marine amp lost a channel. I replaced it with a Boss 200w 2-channel amp and am using a new Mp3 player. Either the amp is nasty or the head-unit is. Neither was super-expensive.
 The amp was 45.00 the head-unit was 50.00. The speakers bottom-out with very little volume. It sounds like dog-poop.


 

Got my sound-woes figured out....Output on the Mp3 was the culprit of the nastiness.....Switched output location to the "movie-out" port. Also added a 150w powered Shark 6-inch bass tube under the dash......SWEET!!! Boom-Boom!!!
