I saw something on here and also on a youtube video about upgraded brakes . I have an 09 trooper , are the upgraded brakes for the early models or for all, also was it a campaign with parts provided for free ?

You should have the "upgraded" brakes on the 2009. Early 2008's had smaller rotors. The brakes still stink though. I upgraded my front calipers with brembo dual pistons with some improvement. Lenny has had the most success. He added an extra caliper in front. My next step will be to go to smaller master cylinders and try that. We have a automotive size master cylinders pushing ATV size brakes (too much volme, not enough pressure).

Rocmoc was going to switch his brake lines around so they are not criss-crossing, but I haven't heard if he has done that yet or the results.

I have my brakelines switched, 2 fronts on one master and 2 rear on the other. works good. I guess with the stock setup that if you were in 4x4 full lock out and one master cylinder went bad, you would still have brakes on all 4 wheels and you wouldn't be in 4x4 full lock unless you were trying to climb steep (or in mud) so this would make some sense. Switching the brakes would eliminate this marginal advantage plus 2 brakes won't stop it anyway. I have my parking brake on the driveshaft so I do have all 4 wheels braking if I'm in 4x4. Even if both of my masters go out, I still have good braking. Two calipers on each wheel is fairly easy and gives a lot better braking.

See the "Joyner Trooper dragging brakes" post for pictures of my brake setup.

      2008 Joyner Trooper Transmission Conversion

      Wondering if anyone has ever converted a manual transmission to automatic in a Joyner Trooper T2?  Looking to give to my daughter and she is unable to drive a manual medically.  Thanks :- )

      Greetings, new member here from New Mexico
      By J R
      Hi, I just bought a used 2015 MSU500  with 365 hrs on it. After riding it the UTV seemed sluggish and would not climb a moderate hill without getting a running start in low range. Took it to a repair shop and they told me that the clutches were burnt and slipping. Had the primary clutch replaced and afterwards was told that the compression of the cylinder was only 80psi, which I was told was 100psi below original compression. I've bought all parts necessary, including new crankshaft and bearings to rebuild the motor. My question is, does anyone know if a 700cc top end kit will bolt onto the 500 motor case?

      By strike250
      I have the factory service manual available for the Buck 400. Just send me a message with your email and I'll get it to you. Although there is no charge for this, it would be great if  you would visit my website where you could donate any amount to help do things like this with others who need it. Again, there is no charge for this manual, and no obligation to donate. But if you did, I would thank you for sure. Have fun on the trails. www.warriorsoffroad.com
