it would be interesting to see what everyone carries on there utv. as in tools, first aid, emergency communication.

i have seen a few with nothing more than a few beer, guess they rely on the good will of others or are in self denial.

wow, looks like a major overhaul to change a belt? 3 belts there is something out of alignment or damaged.
Nothing damaged or anything, could probably use a clutch kit. just whenever this thing gets stuck in like Skeg or something, the winch doesn't have enough power to pull it out without hitting the gas, and sometimes depending on the stuck when you hit the gas when the wheels are packed in mud the belt will just smoke a bit until the wheels can get spinning. This belt wasn't actually blown just smoked pretty bad so it had a bad shutter at low speeds so I figured I'd better change it. On my last belt I ran it until the shutter went away and it worked fine until I got up to top speed going down a road and I ended up with chunks of belt comming out of my snorkel lol and it's not the easiest to Change it, lots of plastic has to come out and there's some bolts in some really stupid places

That looks like a pain in the azz ! So far, at 600 miles, I haven't blown a belt on my RZR 1000. When it does happen though, I can have the belt cover off in under two minutes.

Well, guess I lucked out big time : Put my commander and the honda quad on the trailer, and backed it into the (New) Garage, got an 8 foot door on it, that took care of the height, what i forgot about was that I extended my trailer, luckily it all just fits and the door closes,.... Whew... Duh !!!
