32s on a Trooper


Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Keith and I am new to the Joyner brand. I just started selling them in my store and thought this would be a good place to get info about them.

I would like to know if anyone has been able to get a set of 32s under one and if so how did it do

31's are the largest i have heard of and that was with some mod work being done to the firewall.

I run 33" paddle tires for the sand dunes for the extra floatation. My firewall has been modified to take it along with different fenders. It puts the gearing too high but it does work for me because I have extra engine mods that make it possible to pull them. When I was stock It was way under powered and would hardly get going. I guess for a sense of what it would be like compairede to stock tires, forget using 2nd gear for normal starting gear and try using 3rd instead. You can do it but it just doesn't really work well especially if your in a tight spot. We are pulling 31' tires fairly good but it too raises the gearing a little more then we like but it does work. 32" might just be the overdone point.

Like Lenny I am running 31x10.50X15. As Lenny said, the 32's would make the gearing too high for crawling. With the 31's we are on the edge with being a great/good rock crawler. I still take off in 2nd in most cases reserving 1st for the slow stuff. Spacing between the gears becomes much more comfortable with the larger tires. I am one of the few that has lower the ride height via the shock coils. My concern was the CV joint angle was to great and all the shock action was in the compression mode. No or very little extension. Very pleased at the point. Take a look at Lenny & my galleries of pics of our Troopers. You will see the 31's have a great look.

I did the mods to my fire wall and I could get a 33" on there but think it would be to high geared for the way I ride it.. I lowered the rear end down about 2" and remounted the new shocks to get the ground clearance.. The CV can run at a pretty step angle without binding.. You can look at my gallery and see the pics of the rear CV's..

WOW, great mods! You will have to make it to next year's Jamboree so we can see your suspension work!

Welcome to the forum. We will all be interested to find out if Joyner came through on the new 2011 Trooper. On previous models there were many improvements to be made. First thing you MUST do is change out that filter with a K&N. Even better would be to either do a snorkel or some sort of air box for it along with the K&N. The stock filters do nothing in the way of filtering out dust.

It appears you are into mudding. I highly recommend a fuel controller for the best bang for your buck in torque & hp gain. Silverbullet Motorsports has these. They also have a camshaft upgrad which we are waiting to hear some feed back from one of the members on a stock motor. AND, stay tuned for Lenny's dyno results on his supercharged Trooper.

How do the stock shocks ride in your opinion? Supposedly they have been upgraded, but honestly they look the same as previous models only they now have blue coils.

      Hi All,
      Just picked  up a 2020 UT400 that my 80 year old father will be driving around the farm.  We purchased the machine with a few "issues" and they lowered the price accordingly.  Small stuff like passenger size mirror and back reflector was torn off by a Tractor supply employee, which we will order replacements for.  Also after further inspection, whoever assembled it did not put a few bolts in the rollcage and aren't in the glovebox, so will be having to order those also.
      Anyway, there are two initial things on the UT400 I'm not sure what they are or for.  The first, there is a square white electrical connector with about 8 pins hanging form under the middle of the back bed - I don't see another one to match up or plug into it, so wondering if this is pre installed optional connection for like towing around a sprayer?  Anyone know what this is?  Also, there is a 10 inch black rubber hose that is zip tied to the back A frame on the passenger side.  I watched the assembly video and it doesn't mention one, so don't know what this hose is for - anyone know?
      Also, has anyone come up with a "fix" or work around for having to have the seatbelts plugged in or even in place?  We aren't planning on using them and are figuring just plugging them in and wedging them behind the seats - didn't know if there is a way to just disconnect the "over 10mph gas starving" safety sensor.
      Looking forward to seeing how this machine does for my father.   I'm thinking about installing a suicide knob on it for easier turning for him, as it's a little stiff (compared to our Kawasaki Mule).  Maybe with use it will loosen up some?
      Thanks!

      Was at Lowe's over the weekend. The wife and I seen they have a new Axis 550. That thing is sharp. Has a complete door. Speakers in door. Bigger engine. Bench seats. New styling all the way around. Looks to be more air tight than my 2022 model. I really like the looks but $10k is out of my price range for now. Unless I could sell mine. And the resale on the Axis 500 is nothing.
      Went to the local wally world today. See a 4 person Polaris General 1000 on the back of a trailer. That Polaris looked exactly like a stretched version of the Axis 550. Even down to the vents in the windshield.
      Just wondering if anyone can confirm or deny the Axis 550 is a copy of the Polaris?

      I got an old 2003 Arctic Cat 375 Auto, and just bought a 2008 AC 650 side by side. Got a new starter, solenoid, and battery for the 650. Gonna change the crankcase oil and filter while I'm at it.
      Anything I oughta watch out for from them that's done the starter/solenoid on this model?
      Don't have a manual yet for the 650. Any recommendations for oil weight/grade?
      Thanks.

      Apparently, these are Hisun or at least they use Hisun engines. I can't find much info on them online yet.  Ran across a used one with just 100 miles on it as a very reasonable price.  Just curious.
      Okay, more info...they are owned by Textron Corp who also owns Bell Helicopter, Cessna & Beechcraft aircraft, Ez-Go & Cushman and Arctic Cat and a bunch of other companies.
      So are thy cheap Chinese crap machines or are they good to go?

      QUESTION: How to wire the C/B into this current dual battery set up.

      EXISTING SITUATION: MAIN Battery is OEM and feeds OEM circuits. Added an AUX Battery in the OEM dual battery location. Connected the AUX - terminal to the MAIN - terminal. Connected the 100A Accessory Fuse Block power cable to the AUX + terminal. Installed a smart isolator between AUX and MAIN batteries where a cable from AUX + goes to the isolator and a cable from isolator to MAIN battery + terminal. Installed separate QD battery tender cables to both AUX and MAIN batteries + and -. The dual battery system appears to work as intended. For this Phase 1 improvement, to avoid having to constantly pull the leads on the AUX + battery post off and put on, for testing or maintenance of Accessory circuits, I wanted a more convenient and safer way to open the circuit from the AUX battery + terminal the Accessory Fuse Block. I called an off road dealership and was told to install a much larger capacity circuit breaker than the 100A rated Fuse Block and was recommended to get a 250A C/B like the one in the pic, which I did. I was told the reason for the C/B high amp rating was two-fold (a) to trip in the event of a battery short circuit and (b) to be able to conveniently open the C/B to kill power to the Accessory Fuse Block without removing leads from the AUX + terminal. The 250A C/B has two posts labelled "BAT LOAD" and "BAT LINE". There are currently three connections to the AUX + post: (1) Accessory Fuse Block power cable, (2) cable to Isolator AUX in terminal, (3) cable from AUX battery charger.
