Cooling fan issue

Need some thoughts.. I have a warm plow set up on on Outlander 500xt. I noticed the last time I plowed, when the cooling fan came on with the plow up (winch used to lift plow) the cooling fan was hitting the radiator I presume. I checked again after it warmed up and snow melted and same thing.. plow down no noise, plow up noise. I looked best I could, nothing in the fan and fan/rad doesn’t appear to me loose. Thoughts? I m afraid the frame is cracked, allowing the rad to flex or something with the weight of the plow pulling down on it? With all the plastic and crap in the way I can’t see anything.

What’s the best, not the cheapest?

Mud Worx, RJWC or OMC air filter box modification.

What's your results on using these products to seal up the G2 stock air filter cover? Looking at the few posted threads, there's not much feedback. I purchased the RJWC before seeing the Mud Worx design. I believe the Mud Worx design could be better at sealing the box long term. But, I have my reservations based on looking at the limited pictures found. The rings and plate have many holes to bolt it up, but the plate is thin and could just warp and not seal correctly. Where can you find information on this product? Can you use the stock air filter with it? The OMC gasket would be the most simple fix. The RJWC might work perfectly fine, you just need to make sure there are no sharp edges that come in contact with the air box.

Intro and hello

Good morning, I am new to the forum. I was a dirt biker and after too many spills on 2 wheels I switched to 4. I purchased a DS250 for my wife (2018) and I ride a Raptor 700. I joined the forum to learn what I can do to the 250 to increase the lackluster performance.
I have removed the red ring of death from the throttle body, but the machine is still somewhat blaaaa.
We rode the Dunes in Oregon for the first time last weekend and are hooked on the sand. We used to ride the mountains but I think we are going to stick with the sand.
Any other sand riders? I'm looking for suggestions for paddle size, wheel off set etc.
And if anyone has hop up ideas for the 250 that would be great. BTW, I tried to reach out to Full Power Performance but not sure it they are still in business.
Thanks in advance

Insurance question on new sportsman

If I am buying a new sportsman and financing some of the cost will the financing bank require me to have insurance on it? I'm in Pennsylvania and plan on insuring it to ride state trails AFTER it is paid off so I do not need full coverage.
