Factory tires. Machine had all four straps break when I was trailering on a bad road at 55 mph. Took a tumble, rolled and landed on its side in a ditch

Side By Side / Need rear axle
« on: October 06, 2019, 09:09:37 PM »
Rear drivers side axle snapped at the hub clean off. No luck finding any parts online. And my dealer that was 10 minutes away from me is no more. Next closest one is 100 miles away. Anybody else have an axle snap yet?

I made a 72†plow for my 450. Pushed through and did my 900’ driveway today with zero struggles. I was even pushing back banks from previous storms with it

I noticed them on my 450. Figured they were factory wiring for extra lights. Never really looked into it

I am actually in the process of putting a plow together for my 450i. Bought an old 4’ tractor
Plow for 40$ and some extra steel plate and tubing to add onto it. Trying to finish tomorrow and add some pics. Basically added a foot to each side and fabbed up a mount that carries to the rear of the engine. Also sticks far enough ahead of the machine that I can lift the plow almost vertically. It will be winch operated for up and down, as well as another winch to turn the the plow left or right. All done with only losing 1 1/4†ride height. Still have 10 3/4†clearance
Pics and possible video to come.

I had the same problem once coming out of a large puddle. Water got into the belt housing and made the drive belt slip. After a couple minutes it came out of it

I had asked that same question last summer! I havent gotten around to removing mine yet. Building a house with a pregnant wife kinda pauses things like that. Probably will do it later this summer. Will update if and when I do it

Side By Side / Re: 450i - Does it fit? Long bed, tail gate up?
« on: April 25, 2017, 12:38:52 AM »
I have a 6' bed and the back tires sat on my tailgate. 8' bed would probably work.

You can move the front shocks to the outer mounting position and crank them up a little. My 450i went from 8" clearance in the front to 12". And has made no effect on ride quality

I'm not sure what type of battery. I know it's 310 cca. I'll look at the battery as soon as I have a chance

« on: November 30, 2016, 01:01:39 AM »Here's a picture of the warn winch and plow. It was terribly hard to install and needed many modifications to the mounting plates to get on properly.

That is the one my dealer wants me to buy from him. With winch he said it was about 900$
I already have a winch. I'll have to ask home what the plow and mount cost

Thanks I replaced it with a gel cell battery. It turns over a lot better and runs great now
