Moose, Racer-Tech, Rubber-Down, The one Gunny had on his regular RZR, and now EMP, all bracket-lifts, poor performance seems to be the trend.

Actually the Rubber Down was a very solid, well thought out lift. It was just too extreme for my Rhino at about 2 1/4 inches of lift. I think about 1 1/2" is Max with the current set up in the Rhino.

I agree the Rubber Down lift was a very heavy duty kit that mounted with zero issues but it offered to much lift. I only gain 3/4 inch in the rear with the rear block and that was to much it caused my axle to rub the frame at full extension of the shocks. The front on the other hand gained well over two inches putting the axles in a bind and yielding problems with the alignment of the front tires.

I would like to have the RubberDown front plates drilled to raise the front of the rhino about 1.5-2 inches to offer a leveler ride. Because I believe my rhino sits about 2 inches lower in the front than the rear... I talked with Paul about this a couple months ago and I don't know what ever come about it I guess I need to e-mail him and see what he says..

I wasn't knocking any of the lifts,or the way any of them are built. It just seems thay all come with unknown issues, that the consumer has to deal with later on.

On another note. The RZR muffler, I took it off. It did give some more seat of the pants bottom-end, a little, but hurt me on the top.

Think you need the RZR mapping flashed on your ECU Jimbo?

Yeah I agree, I bet you were running lean. You might want to put a programmer on that thing. If you had told me I could have welded you a bung in the pipe so you could have put a o2 sensor in it to be sure.

Agree with both of ya'll. I'm gonna wait until the warranty runs out before doing anything else performance wise.

Yeah, me too!!!!!!!

Now that I think about it, the warranty will probably run out before I get it put back together LOL...........

Got started on the D/P sheet tonight.

Thanks bro. Not long enough. Guess the search is on. I need some at least 24 at full extension....

Anytime bro,

Pate, i was thinking about a cover similar to yours for the bed of my rhino last monday after the muddy ride, but due to the lack of depth if i was to put a cooler and stuff in there it would not close. I was thinking of a cover that would be around a foot taller that would hold in alot more camping gear and keep mud and direct rain off.
a bubble top or offset from the sides then go vertical maybe. of course as far as weight goes i (wishing) would like to see plastic

but your ranger is looking good bro !

Looks good Pate!
I just can't wait to see it with mud all over it..........

That is kinda cool Little-Smith.

yeah robert i was thinking it was gonna be an outrageous price, buying it from yamaha, but you could probably find one on ebay or somewhere like
yamaharhino.com
sidebysidesports.com
blackrhinoperformance.com
for probably a much better price

That is cool. I like it.
