    Aftermarket shifter replacement or can my shifter be adjusted?

    Has it always been hard to shift into high or did it just start? Mine shifts into high as easily as low. If the clutch is spinning it would be hard to shift into any gear so I don't think it's the clutch.

    Newbee from the General XP

    Welcome. I came from a '17 2 seater General, now a XP5. Upgraded for the hvac. My main complaints with the Xpedition are: 1. Very tippy, so I added the SATV long travel kit 2. Steering racks don't hold up. Mine was replaced after 6 months. SATV is working on a replacement but they tell me they...

    Hello, clutch kit question

    Not sure about the other brands but the Aftermarket Assassins S3 clutch kit gives you a lot of weights and slugs (if you add the Cruiser option) so you can tweak it to however you like it. For example I added bigger tires so I changed the weights. AA also has very good belt grip. They also have...

    Oil Filter Relocation Kit

    You installed the access door? If so is it easy to see and remove the filter? Or do you have to do it by feel? Thanks

    Oil Filter Relocation Kit

    When you guys get it installed let us know how easy it is to access the filter. Looks like you are gonna be doing it by feel?

    Oil Filter Location?

    I have the SATV skid plate on mine. When I installed it I ran a tap in all of the holes and then used bolts (not the self tapping screws). I also put never seize on them. To change the oil I just drop the piece of the skid plate that's over the filter. Still a pain but not bad

    New build with aftermarket assassin turbo kit

    Only thing I have saw is that some guy ran the wrong tune and burned up his motor. He posted on FB bashing Michael Hurd from AA. I tagged Michael in the post. Next thing I knew the post was gone. Then a few days later he posted the turbo for sale. I asked him about the other post and he said...

    Windshield protection

    We have traveled from TX to CO 4-6 times a year for the last 9 years. We had three windshields cracked by rocks on the trucks and car. Insurance paid all three times; the problem is this makes your insurance go up. So you gotta weigh the cost of the windshield vs how much higher you insurance is...

    Front sway bar disconnect

    With the front off I don't notice any issue with high speed driving. It does make it articulate more so it's smoother in the rocks. I do leave the rear on (I have tried it both ways). With it off it's not stable on high speed driving and on the rocks it wants to lean so far it gets tippy. With...

    Heater Performance

    On my '24 my AC was mediocre in the Texas heat until I added bunches of insulation. Heater has always worked good. We took it out in single digits during a near blizzard and the only issue was- If you got the wind in a certain direction lots of cold air came in around the doors. Had to crank...

    Rear Tire Carrier

    I carry about 300 lbs of stuff with me. I run Schmidty springs. I don't think springs are gonna help you. Its the extra weight on the tail end of the machine. I also have a Turbo R and have had a XP Turbo. Even with a 150 lbs of tools in the rear (and a winch and bumper on front for counter...

    Rear Tire Carrier

    With that and a spare mounted its gonna make you be doing wheelies and/or flip backwards when going up steep inclines. I don't carry a spare much any more but if I do I just strap it down on top of the Packouts in my bed
