    Seat belt extender

    Take a look at the steel pieces that I made when I installed my harnesses. Worked great and also extended them so easier to buckle. 4 point harness

    Two free quarts of oil

    Nope. They have never gave out oil in the past for my other SXSs and as far as I know it's only to Xpedition owners.

    forward offset A arms

    They were 1.5" SATV arms. Rhino 2.0 weren't around back in those days. Highlifter DHTs were junk. The boots would tear for no reason. Me and a buddy both had them and had to change the boots multiple times

    Adding accessories

    Will they replace the Polaris mirror and it's mount? Dealer throws away the blank piece and installs the mirrors so it would have to fit and replace where the Polaris mirror mounts.

    forward offset A arms

    I had offset arms on my XP900. It does affect turning radius slightly. The main problem is you will break your cv joints on the axles if you back up while turning sharp. SATV supplies steering stops with their arms but then your turning radius really sucks. I was running stock axles, and then...

    Problems with Ride Command

    Polaris couldn't get wifi chips when the Xpedition came out two years ago. You have always had to connect via bluetooth tethering. I assume they got cheap and just decided to leave the wifi chip out permanently.

    Oil change

    When we bought the place in CO, I sold the cows and hay equipment but we still have 160 acres to play on!

    Oil change

    I have been using T6 since it came out in '16 on all of the equipment on the place. No issues in 10 years. We run T4 and its predecessor since the 80's until we moved to T6. Amsoil has too many guys that they let become dealers and they push it all over the 'net

    Oil change

    Nope, waste of money if you use the right oil. I use Rotella T6 5w40. It has: 1310 ppm zinc, 1157 ppm phosphorus as compared to Polaris 5w50 which is 860ppm zinc and 756 ppm phosphorus I run Rotella T6 in my Ranger, Turbo R, XP5, two tractors, two trucks, compact track loader and mini excavator

    New guy from SW AZ.

    Polaris must have improved the AC. When I got my XP5 over two years ago the AC couldn't keep up in Texas summers (hot and muggy) Had four people in it running down blacktop road and all of us were sweating. The firewall got so hot my GF burnt her back. After $500 of insulation, AC now works...

    What’s the One Food You Could Eat Every Day? 🍴

    A hamburger. My family raised beef for 40 years so I lean that way.

    Sandcraft steering rack stabilizer

    My contact at SuperATV says they are working on a replacement for the EPS/rack for the Xpedition and Pro R which are having multiple failures. I also see that Polaris shows a new part number for the EPS rack but don't know what changed. At $2400 not a gamble I want to take. The guy at Max...

    Sandcraft steering rack stabilizer

    We don't need a stabilizer kit anyway. We need a new EPS/steering rack. Mine was bad from the factory on the stock tires.

    Starlink mini packout mount

    I bought the American Adventure Labs mini starlink packout mount. Starlink Mini Packout Mount - American Adventure Lab It mounts to a packout with four cleats and 8 screws so you can't easily move it from machine to machine. (You can easily remove the Starlink dish) Since I want to use it in my...
