Amazing quality

After tying to figure out ways to make all parts work together I decided to remove the IB front upper along with the winch plate bracket and just install the bumpers.

Rear was straight forward and looks great.

Front was a very tight fit and looks great. Originally I was getting the fairlead plate added by John and I THINK that would’ve worked and been the best route. After sending him photos i canceled the fairlead plate due to wanting to keep the IB front upper which didn’t happen. Too late.

I see no need to perform steps 1 and 2 on this model. Maybe I was lucky.

As far as step 5, I will keep trying but there is really no way to get the nut into the frame. The holes are too small with the largest hole being only big enough to turn the nut sideways and then try to tip it the right way up. Maybe it is me or maybe they changed the frame slightly. I have some surgical tools that may help me and will let you know if I am successful.

I removed any IB Skids that would interfere with the final install and as you can see she looks great and is very sturdy even with only four connections. Although I would love to have the IB front upper bashplate installed, she surely has more protection than stock.

Apparently there is something different about the 2017 1000 touring. Called richocet and they are having to work up a new set of Aarm guards for it.
Wondering if anyone has every tried the Polaris plastic units....they run $149 a pair so $300 for all 4 but have them in stock right now.

I recently had to replace the left front brake caliper on my 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500 due to breakage of the old one. It lost all of the fluid out of the reservoir at one time and now I can't get any back pressure when I squeeze the handle. I tried back bleeding the system but still get no back pressure. It's as if the master cylinder isn't pumping pressure, however when I hold my finger over on of the tiny holes in the master I can get fluid to jump about 6" in the air when I remove my finger. Any suggestions?

I have. 1996 sportsman 400 starts pretty easy when the motor is cold but if it has run for awhile I have to use full choke and about half throttle to get it to start back actually flooding it, any and all suggestions are appreciated, the carb has been cleaned but not rebuilt new fuel and air filter. Thanks

I'm tired of dealing with these extensions I don't ride deep water so the factory snorkel spots will be more then enough for me. Anyone want to trade the factory gauge support and the few peices that have to be modified for the snorkel extensions for the kit I'm game let me know I'm in wv 24740 but willing to ship.

I’ve been a Jeeper for years, but new to the RZR life and loving it so far. What tools/sockets and spare parts are recommended to bring along on trail rides? Currently running a 2011 S800 and 2012 800.

Hello I am new to the Polaris forum I am hoping somebody can give me some pointers I have a 09 big boss 800 with. 4wd issues. When in foreword the 4wd works perfect but when in reverse with the button pushed and held in from a dead stop it will not engage it show it’s in 4wd on the dash the whole time. I have changed all fluids using recommended Polaris lubricant minus engine oil. Checked connections on the front diff. I am hoping that somebody can point me in the proper direction I think it’s electrical not the cage but not 100 percent

Hello everyone
So I have a 2018 570x2.
I’m looking to wiring up a 14” light bar on the front bumper.
The light bar comes with a wiring harness and it already has a switch, fuse and relay pre-wired.
I’m just not sure if I should take the red(+) to the battery and cut the switch out and tie into the high.

Can anyone just tell me the best way to wire this guy up so I get full power to all the lights

Just wondering if there is any accessory power points to hook up a light bar or do I have to go right to the battery? Would like the power switch to be controlled by the key on/off
