I have a new 700-4 and I installed the Honda full
Cab enclosure not including the dumpbox enclosure. Getting used to the suicide doors.

The front of the box rubs on the rear panel of the cab. If any of you have had this issue, I would love some suggestions for keeping them from rubbing. I am afraid over time the metal will run through the plastic.

Did you check to make sure the rear cab portion is properly installed ? Did you follow the online Honda instructions ?

There should easily be a fingers width of clearance between the back of the cab and the box. If that is where it’s rubbing.

Can you post a couple of pics

The suicide doors are a nice change from the old regular ones I have, make it a lot easier to get in and out. The dump box on mine also touches the back of the cab. was on it when I bought it in 2016 the buggy is 2014. only problem I had was squeaking when the bed wasn't latching down right, was missing one of the rubber bumpers in the frame that it sits on when closed. you could loosen all the mounts and try putting something in between the bed and cab then retighten mounts or try slowly heating it up with a heat gun to see if you can't get a small gap in there. good luck and enjoy the buggy
