All mid 2008 through 2014 Polaris RZR 800 series have a big problem with the rear differential pinion nut backing off, allowing the pinion gear to shoot into the rear differential, destroying the rear differential. This has happened with machines with as little as less than 100 miles on them! Reports indicate that there are no problems, nor warnings, until the rear differential grenades, locking the rear axles solid! This requires the machine to be lifted onto a trailer, to be transported for rear differential replacement, as it destroys the case. After failure, rear differential replacement can be quite expensive: labor alone can run from $800-$1200 and a new OEM Spicer rear diff, if you can find one, can run from $1700-$2500! So, if you own any Polaris RZR 800 series between the years of 2008-2014, I recommend that you do this repair before further use of your machine. personally, I have grounded my machine until it can be done. Please check the online post for your own awareness.

Hisun/Axis seatbelt defeat/bypass
This file is for using a laser cutter to cut a dummy seatbelt tongue to override the seatbelt warning and speed limiter. I used 3mm thick acrylic. My laser is an XTool, so I included the .xcs file for that brands software, but also included a generic vector file .svg. Probably want to verify the dimensions translated properly for your cutter before using. My UTV is an Axis E1, which is basically a rebranded Hisun Sector E1, and I'm also guessing that all the Hisuns probably use a common seatbelt anyway.
Use only where appropriate and at your own risk.

I swapped out the Subaru motor for a Predator 670cc. If I remove the heat shield around the muffler, The stock muffler sits in there just fine with 1" to spare.
Only problem is the exhaust exit is toward the back seat instead of out the back.
Do you all think that the stock exhaust would be okay (just as effective) if cut a hole and welded a pipe on the reversed (opposite) end? Of course, plug the old exit end. Other option I thought of was to roll a tube 180° with a 7" center line radius and finish extention of 12" or so.
Any thoughts?
We have pretty much decided to buy a Polaris utv to use around the place and for some irrigation stuff. We were thinking about getting a windshield, top, and rear window. All the Polaris utv accessories are pretty pricey and I was wondering if anyone had used some after market accessories? Any other thoughts on stuff that we should put on it?
Thanks
I just bought my first Polaris yesterday and I’m waiting for it to be delivered. I opted against getting the windshield and roof from the dealer — he roughly quoted about $1k for both, which seemed a bit steep — so I’m looking around online first.
I’m specifically shopping for Polaris Ranger XP 1000 accessories like windshield, roof, and other gear. Where do you all usually buy from, and do members here get any discounts or preferred vendors?
Thanks!
