Hello to all.

Well I just got me a used trooper, (2009), and have a few questions that I haven't seen on here.

First some info on my T2, seems pretty much stock with the exception of a new muffler with the cat removed, It has 31x10.50x15 firestone destination ATs on it, yes they do rub, so I have a new set of swamper TSL, 29x9.50x15 I'm mounting now. It's street legal here in Oklahoma with everything the state requires already on it. .Great toy that goes any where I've wanted to take it so far. Now for the questions, what kind of mileage can I expect on a tank of gas. What weight of oil does it need. What pressure do the stock shocks need to run, previous owner bled them down so now I have to find a place to get them charged. Hope to here from some trooper owners around N.E. Oklahoma. Most people I've told about it an shown it to have never herd of Joyner, they treat it like cheap junk from china until I take them for a ride an go places they cant believe it goes. Actually our ran a wildcat on the top end. :D

welcome I have an 09 trooper as well running 30' zillas no rub except bottom of my extended fenders at full flex. Oil I think I am running 10-30 Castro synthetic and gear oil I run whats in the manual I think its 750-140 synthetic as well. As far as the shocks go I am not sure I run a full air shock for flexing its the stock ones it wont be much try Kinarfis post or message him he played with the shocks a lot. I live in ma and a lot people here think its Chinese junk too till I have to pull someone home or climb that hill rock or mud hole no one can. Theres a lot of good info here some little overwhelming but helpfull

Thanks Charlie, that helps. I'm waiting on my manual from the guy I got this from. I did figure out with no pressure in the shocks you don't want to go fast on my rough blacktop roads, feels like your on a giant air hockey table with no control. LOL. shocks are first on my fix it list.

Thanks Kinarfi. ( Wow, now that's a manual) I found a performance tire shop to charge my shocks to 125psi. $25 for all 4 shocks. (seems cheap enough considering I didn't have to remove them). I'm hitting the sand today at a small local spot so we'll see how this thing handles. Am blessed with a ton of places from 25 - 1500 acres to ride within 20 miles of home. every thing from sand, mud, rock crawling, big open trails and tight wooded trails. Thanks again.

      Just received delivery of a 2024 AMP Pro.  Thought I'd start a thread with my impressions as I use it and learn more.  There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of real-world usage information out there on this model.  Hope this will help others as they research.
      Intended Use Cases
      Fire mitigation / slash removal from a 5 acre forested and well-gamble-oaked property.  The previous owners thought as much about fire mitigation as I do about fashion: not much. Snow removal Stump pulling General hauling (rock, lumber, etc.) Weimaraner energy depletion.  Wasn't an original use case, but a nice added bonus.  Experiences So Far
      Wasn't impressed that two of the bumpers on the underside of the bed where it sits upon the frame were missing.  The metal on metal contact has damaged the powder coating and the frame.  I expect a little better QC.
      I've only put a few hours on it, so not a ton to report on usage.  It isn't quiet; it's silent.  I can't even detect an electric note from the motor. I removed (and subsequently replaced) the motor cover noticed that the motor is German and made by Schambuller.  The motor controller is Italian and made by Dana TM4.  Given the operating specs of both I found on the web, I suspect both are higher quality than the previous Navitas (which is supposed to be decent).  The motor is rated at 25 hp and 71.5 lb-ft of torque.  It feels very powerful.  All the torque is delivered instantly, if desired.
      The bed is huge and has an electric dump as standard.  Great feature but would like it to go up a bit more.  Probably not feasible from an engineering perspective, but I want and I need ;).
      Power steering is nice, but vague.  Probably common to many UTVs, but I am accustomed to more direct results from input.  Plan early and plan often.
      In our first full day of usage, we hauled about 1/2 as much slash as the entire rest of the year when I was doing it by hand cart.  I may get fatter, but I'll also get more done.  After a few days of usage, the battery meter has gone down by 1/10th. 
      Until next time...

      Riding out today it acted like it ran out of gas,  stalled and died and would not start.   Towed back to house,  New  plug added this past month,  plenty of oil, getting plenty of gas, battery cranks good.   Trys to kick in and starts but doesnt.   Two days prior while sitting at a idle it died.  Added gas and it started did my ranch chores with it.  But just now it stalled out cranks but will not start.   Tried to find if fault codes came up on the clock like manual says but not sure I am doing that right.  Any and all help apprecated.  Thank you

      Looking for a output shaft for a Joyner trooper t2. Went to move the buggy after sitting all winter and it appears the out put shaft that drives the rear wheels broke off inside the transmission so looking for the shaft or a complete transmission if someone has one

      I just picked this UTV up off of Marketplace. It needs batteries. 
      I am installing a single 48v lithium battery. 
      The on board charger, a NOCO Genius GX 4820, has a lithium mode. 
      Has anyone here used this charger on new lithium batteries? I want to be certain of the compatibility before hooking the charger to this expensive battery. **
       
      **
      I got in touch with NOCO and they told me the charger is fine to use on a new LiFePo battery. 
      Nice charger. Many modes. New ones are running about $550.

      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!
