New ’18 570, Lightbar/Tire Q’s

Hi all,

After having the same '97 Xplorer 500 since I was a kid, sadly she went out to pasture about 3 years ago, I figured it was time to get a new workhorse for our small family farm. I am picking up a '18 570 EPS tomorrow from the dealer. However, I do have a few questions for the community, as I haven't found the answers elsewhere. Maybe I haven't looked enough, or I'm blind, but hopefully ya'll can help me a bit.

I know the stock Carlisle 489s aren't the best tire in the world, but has anyone studded them before? What size studs if so?

Also, when it comes to mounting a light bar without the front bumper, I'm having a tough time picking a mounting location. Looking for ideas or pic's of what others have done.

Any help, tips or advice would be appreciated!! Thanks in advance!

Looking to replace my shocks

Hey guys and girls. I’m fed up with the fox floats on my bike they have to go. Some of you may remember the trouble I had with the back shocks a few months ago. Now the front shocks are seized and it has become so rough that it’s tearing apart my shock mounts. I will be tearing the bike down and re-welding and strengthening them and replacing the shocks. My question is what shocks am I looking for? Will regular outlander shocks work? I’m not going to elka or the like, just way to expensive. If anyone would like to trade me a set of regular shocks for my floats I’m all for that as they are rebuildable. What shocks can I replace them with that don’t cost an arm and a leg?

wheel offset?

I am thinking of putting mags on the front of my 6x6, The rear have factory steels. They have 1'' more offset than the rears. Going from a 6'' to a 7'' wide. Will they look ok? How about handling?

thanks

First hand experience with ocelot p375?

Thinking of buying a set of ocelot p375's for my sportsman 600, not sure if in going to stay stock sizes, or up to 26"s.
Anyone have a first hand review of these? They came in 2nd during the 25" shootout chapmoto.com did, I dont think I need larger tires for anything, unless they run small.
Thanks!

Sport X RCs With hope

The wife and I were looking to get two of these and hoping to get into some mud this year. We weren't sure where we could go ride so we went and downloaded the free mobile app mud finder and it did, it has a LOT of places. It looks like almost a thousand places. We also found they are starting a list of off-road events that are going on. It seems pretty slick.

We were wondering if others had favorite places to ride in the mid-west?

CV axle replace 2004

Hello,
Stuck LH front CV axle in a 2004 outlander 400 4x4 xt. The 4 obvious bolts just serve to hold the brake rotor on correct? I feel comfortable attaching the hub again and using a slide hammer. Am I missing anything? I have viewed a number of videos, none show LH stuck CV on a 2004 but believe it should just pull out.
thank you in advance for any help
Toby
