Re: What hav you fabricated for your quad?

The last thing that we fabricated was puting a john deer tractor muffler on my wifes 2007 polaris sportsman 450. Worked out awesome after the jetting was tuned in and the idle adjusted. Talk about ******* fabrication!!!!

OK, this has been out there since Nov of last year & I got a warning about replying to this thread ...... hope it still works.

Here's a list of items I've fabricated for my bike. Some I have flicks of on my garage, some I don't.
1) Front & read winch mounts (so I can put my winch where I need it. Cut up a $200 front bumper/grill guard/winch mount, to do this) :sad2:
2) Snowplow winch mount (mounts the winch vertical so it's a straight line pull, not over rollers) :icon_thumleft:
3) Cut up a perfectly good front basket to make a front rack add on so my gas cans, etc, don't fall thru the stock rack onto the bike plastic. Can removed if needed / wanted, real easy, 4 J-bolts. :BangHead:
4) Took a Yamaha grill guard for a Kodiak, (ordered while deployed. 2 yrs later figured I couldn't return it) & made it fit my Grizz. :icon_thumleft:
5) Dual remote oil filter setup :icon_thumleft:
6) Engine oil cooler setup :icon_thumleft:
7) Rear diff support (they have them for Rhino's, so I thought, "Why Not ??) :dontknow:
8 - Inner fenders to seal off the frame while running tracks to keep snow from building up inside the frame & A-arms. (The A-arms still need work) 8)
9) Rear gas can / cooler carrier :icon_thumleft:
10) Grill guard to protect oil filters 8)

I think that about covers it ...
Later ....

Nothing on this one but my AC I had a grill bracket welded for the speed rack system. I had a bucket holder fabbed for the rear for ice fishing. Diamond Plate CV protectors custom made. Light bracket that was made to hook up to AC windshield bracket. Lights moved with pod. made my own audio tube.

:sign10: :laughing4: ...... maybe, but I like the way you had it set up :icon_thumleft:

As far as look'in like the Beverly Hillbillies rig, I feel the same about mine some times .... I like the "Shrimp on the Barbie" set up a lot. No matter where you where or what you were do'in ..... you were able to have fresh, hot, "Fee" .... Coffee that is !!!! ..... :laughing7: :laughing7: :laughing7:

Later ...

Hey WELCOME to the forum Lindsaylisa ... glad to have ya join the gang :eek:ccasion14:

I don't have pics of all my mods here at work, but I'll put up a few of what i do have.

Here's one showing the gas can carrier I made and with the winch mounted in the rear. I incorperated the Moose Bumper with these.

Next one shows how I made the snowplow mount ... I just unpin my winch, ad the "L" bracket, repin the winch to that ... it works great ... and I have better pics at home ...

And then some of the oil filter / cooler mod.

My Rear Diff & Inner fender pics are at home ... I'll try & get them up ... or if ya look in my garage photo's, I think they're there ...
