Coleman Outfitter 800

Recommended Posts

I have been given a brand new Coleman Outfitter 800. I am a 100% Disabled combat veteran.

This UTV has been generously given to me and many other severely disabled via the Independence Fund and Wounded Warriors. First I wish to publicly express my appreciation to the Independence Fund for their generosity.

Having said that, now I have a few questions and request some help and direction.

This unit was delivered to my home about 30 days ago. I have read many of the comments directed towards these Chinese Knockoffs, and I would never go out and purchase one of these units. However, when you are given one, what can you say??

From the get go the braking system is marginal at best. Very soft and pedal has to be pushed very, very hard to bring unit to a stop. This is not acceptable for me. I have contacted Coleman PowerSports, in Tempe, AZ. They are of no help what so ever.

I have bleed the system twice to no avail, I am now ready to explore replacing the brake pads, rotors, and master cylinder, however, I do not and can not obtain part numbers! I have pulled the front wheels and inspected the front pads for contamination and/or glazing. Other than very Cheap carbon pads, the pads are not glazed one contaminated, however, extremely dirty with what I would call excessive brake dust, they appear to be OK.

Does anyone have any ideas as to replacement pads, rotors, and master cylinder??

Any constructive comments would be greatly appreciated as to what, where and who I can purchase correct fitting replacement parts including calipers, pads, rotors, and master cylinder.

      Hey guys! Newbie here. I'm an old man who's better with plowing a mule (4-legged kind) than these newfangled beasts. I, and a friend of mine, just bought new Coleman sxs and are having to finish the assembly. I've been reading on this site and I'm falling on the mercy of you experts. The only way I'm an expert is that an "ex" is a has been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure. LOL First off, the 2 buggies have no ignition switches. They seem to mount on the dash, not the opening in the steering wheel shaft cover, so we ordered new ones that are supposed to fit. They are 8 inches long, and have a 4-wired white plugin which is slightly rectangled when looking at the end of the plug. The trouble is there's nothing to plug into. There is a three-wire grey plug close enough to reach the four-wire plug, but of course, they are not compatible. 
      Secondly, the blinker, light, ect. unit on steering wheel just spins around when touched. I see no way in heaven or earth to secure it. I've looked at a diagram on the Powersports site, but can't detect how it mounted. Fellows I'd be so grateful for any help with this. Me and my mule will even plow your garden for free, for your help. LOL

      Hi All,
      New to UTVs and recently accuired a ut400 from our local Alaska Commercial Co. and had a questions regarding the transmission fluid. I have had a squeeling noise, sounds like a teapot, that recently started after being driven for a few minutes. The manual says to change the fluid at 500 miles, so I was thinking maybe its just time for this to be changed. Other then that I cannot find any information regarding the type used. While reading through these forums, I seen someone put that the transmission is lubricated with the engine oil. Is this true? If not what should I be using and where can I find the information to change it out? Any input on this would be greatly appretiated!
      Thanks in advance

      I have a Bennche 700 EFI Bighorn. I’ve recently been unable to get it to start. After a little troubleshooting I realized my fuel pump was not pumping fuel. This weekend I emptied the gas and replaced it with new. I replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel injector. I also replaced the battery, spark plug and made sure all my fuses and relays were good. I have confirmed that the float on the fuel pump is not obstructed. The UTV is about 12 years old and has less than 100 hours on it. It has not run in over a year.  Not sure whats going on?!? After doing a little reading I'm leaning towards it being an issue with the ECU or perhaps a faulty wire in the wiring harness. Anyone have any ideas on where to start looking or what I could be dealing with? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!
