Hi there. We have an '18 Pioneer 1000 LE three seater and need a full cab. The Alumilite cab looks really nice and the owner, Troy has been great with answering questions.

I just saw the Hardcabs option by DFK and it has some features that we really like. Prices are similar. The Alumilite with all the bells and whistles might be $500 more. I like that the Hardcabs comes with side mirrors and locking doors.

So I'm sold on the quality of the Alumilite but would like to hear from anyone with the Hardcabs option.

Thanks.

Just figured out that the Hardcabs is the same as "Moose Cabs", "QuadCabs" and "Open Trails"

I have an Alumilite Armor cab with windshield, roof & back on a 1000-3 & would highly recommend them. Doors will be next but had to do tires & wheels first. Cab worked awesome for plowing last winter. Almost don't need full doors but will probably still get them at some point.

What have you seen from Alumilite?
I have the full windshield with wiper. Fit and finish is awesome. It has taken some good hits on the frame and has held up well

I like the aluminum top for easy mounting of my add ons.
The hard-cab doors looks nice but will they stand up like aluminium ones.
