I’m 90% sure I burnt mine up in reverse trying to get out of a hole. Live and learn I guess but they should definitely have a lower reverse gear. I now know what to do and not to do so as long as the same thing doesn’t repeatedly tear up I will be happy

Picked up Honda today with fresh clutches and man it’s much smoother now taking off, shifting up into gears and even on the downshifting. I never thought about how rough it downshifted until I got it back and now it doesn’t.

Indicators for 2wd/4wd and diff lock aren’t working and shop swears they didn’t do anything that would affect that. It’s operating properly just not indicating so I get to adjust that before next ride.

Glad to have it back in my shop. Now to get it cleaned up, new winch cable installed and new wired remote for soundbar added to dash

Roof, windshield, lightbar, snorkel and all wiring off of cage in preparation of the new flip up windshield. Got roof vents finished and may be redoing snorkel after new windshield. Definitely want to reroute wires to get them off the front cage uprights. May mount lightbar low in front of windshield now that dont have to worry about blocking vents

Those vents look great! Can you share where you got them or who they are made by? (sorry if I missed this in a previous post)

I installed the same Seizmik vents in my SuperATV split windshield; it was not difficult to do with the proper tools (oscillating saw)... nerve-wracking to cut big holes in the windshield (no turning back!), required a fair bit of patience to make the cuts, but they turned out great and are a wonderful addition for airflow, particularly down at body-level where heat from the engine builds up. On a ride this past weekend (first time with the new Seizmik vents), I didn't even notice the heat from the seats like I had on previous trips.

I will say if I did it again I would use a high profile vent in rear and low profile in front. The rear works but is noticeably less airflow due to being in the recess of the roof. Same company and seller has low and high profile version

Good air flow on the front one

Great airflow in both but I’d say the rear one has about 25% less. Simple fix to put the high profile in rear.

Added SATV split windshield last night. Happy with it but now have to redo snorkel and pulled all overhead wiring out to reroute while I’m at it
