  1. The only non stock item is the heater,which is designed for this utv.
  2. I have a 2022 Coleman 400 utv. I have added a heater with a 3 speed fan. I notice that while running with nothing on, the battery voltage gets to about 13,7 volts when funning at speed. If I turn on the lights, the voltage drops to about 12.3,if I turn on the heater fan with the lights on, the battery light will come on. I have replaced the battery with a higher capacity one and have replaced the regulator/rectifier, both have made no difference. I have measured the ac voltage at 22 vac at idle across all 3 phases, so the stator is charging. I have never had any issues with not starting or running poorly due to low voltage. Just wondering if there is anything I can do to increase the voltage from the regulator or is this just a underachieving system?
  3. Buckle the seat belt and it will run to full speed. The seat belt icon on the dash should go out.
  4. A good rule of thumb for buying anything from a big box outlet is to buy new, check cartons for damage, and expect to go over every nut and bolt before trusting that somebody else did it for you. I found a few loose fasteners, a misaligned steering wheel and the tires misaligned. It’s not so much ability to afford a particular side by side as it is how much you value what the vehicle will do for you and how you intend to use it. I figured starting with a fully equipped vehicle that would actually fit down the trails I use was a must. I did a lot to quiet it down and make it a true all weather ride. I am under $8000 all in for a vehicle I am very happy with.
  5. I’m about your age and also bought a UT 400 from TSC. I got it on sale for $6999 and it’s a 2023 model. For what it’s worth, I love mine and have made several improvements to it over the last year,such as a cab enclosure and heat. Just about any part you could possibly ever need can be found quickly and cheaply on Ebay or Amazon. No need to hot wire or cobble anything. Keep in mind that these are made for Coleman by Hisun, so parts are readily available.
  6. Looks better than the one in the tool box, I couldn’t get the rear spring adjuster to move using the one in the kit, but it came on the second softest notch, so I just left it.
  7. Mine had the wrench included in the tool pack in the glove box.
  8. Utvs have a side hip bar that can be removed to give a lot easier access to the seat. Maybe a golf cart would be another consideration. Good luck with whatever you choose.
  9. I removed my anti roll bar today and immediately noticed a better ride over bumps. The bar worked as it was designed, but maybe it was overkill. The bar really stopped the independent front suspension from working independently. For now I’ll leave it off.
  10. What is with all the ads on this site? Getting out of hand.
  11. I had a cover made for my UT 400 to keep things dry and out of sight. Seems like a handy addition. I’ll add some pics when I can.
  12. Can’t disagree with getting all you can out of it. If you do find anything performance oriented, let us all know.
  13. JMHO, but I think you bought the wrong machine if you are looking to hop something up. Whatever you could do wouldn’t overcome the fact that you have a single speed un changeable gearing in a 1100 lb platform powered by a little “400” engine. Most owners focus on noise reduction and trying to make it more comfortable.
  14. I bought the Hisun led bulbs on Amazon, just google Coleman utv led bulbs, they are Really a lot brighter than the originals. Worth the money.
  15. My next pre-emptive mod will be this 3/4” extension.
