Bust out the tin and make your own heat deflector. Chances are it will be better than something mass produced and will cost you alot less in the long run. You might even bitch to polaris and try and work a freebie out of them as they know this problem exist. Good luck.
Ha!! ya, no kidding!! I am a polaris fan to the core but am open to other options (no garbage though) and by all accounts, the Rousch seems to be on the tipping point. It looks good in pictures though.. but ya, looks wont get you from A to B time after time..
Thanks guys. Ya, I have done the usuall U-Tube vids on the Ruesch, never have seen one in person. I think the closest dealer to me is in Arizona (Noisy Toyz) and it hasnt sparked enough interest in me to warrant the drive down there. I know they inked a deal with ATK on 140HP motors but I havnt seen much info or specs on it yet. Lets face the facts gentlemen....140HP.... Thats a whole lot of WHOOP ASS!!!
Whats your take on the new Rousche utv? They look good and seem to offer alot of bang for the buck, not to mention they are throwing alot of horsepower in em....
Sorry for the lack of a speedy reply, been on a little vaca. Thanks again rangerdalexp. I feel ya on the PDAs. I am on my 3rd one due to the heat. I personally think banks mounting location was a very poor design and I ended up fabricating a cradle down by the aux. switches which has been awesome and out of direct sunlight. I also got in the habit of taking it out of the truck at all times during the summer months to avoid another $200 mistake.
Have you noticed a difference with the trans pan? My buddies swear by them but i dont tow nearly as much as you so i havnt pulled the trigger on that yet..
Thanks for the info, appreciate it. getting off the subject, noticed your rolling in the F350 with Banks setup. What Banks products do you have on your rig? Ive got the complete Big Hoss Kit from remote PDA, Diesel tuner to pipes, turbo back. AWESOME STUFF!!! and what a HUGE difference.
Thanks for the feedback. I dont believe anyone was actually hurt, just mild burns which were enough to be annoying, not to mention them wishing they didnt buy that particular machine. I had already planned on throwing in some extra tin skin to help knock down the heat a little but was suprised to read just how bad it was. You mentioned using thier (polaris) fix in the 2010 model and applying it to the 09s... Is there a fix out there that you know of other than good old garage skills??? thanks RANGERDALEXP!
Hi all. I am new to this forum so greetings. I have read on numerous blogs about flesh burns (mild) from the knees down with the 09' Ranger models. I have had 5 polaris machines (and love em) from RZR to Quads and heat was always an issue with the quads but with a press of the thumb, that got resolved. Has anyone encountered shin burn with the new rangers? I live out west where its very hot and the last thing I want to do is bake even more! People have stated that if they new of this heat issue, they would NOT have bought thier ranger. I am on the fence with buying a ranger because of this issue. Thanks
