I bought a handheld DB meter off Amazon and did a little test today. At idol my my machine is 69 DB and at WOT it’s 91.5 DB at 5,500 RPM. Unfortunately I don’t have any stock baseline numbers to reference, my machine is definitely much quieter than stock.
My top speed is only 73 KPH so I think...
How are you guys reading DB levels? Can you download an app on your iPhone? If we all had the same measuring device and used it the same way we could compare different products and see real results
I just trimmed up a piece of 3/4” barn material just like another member did. Fits great and hopefully helps a bit with the noise. Use brand new blades when trimming helps tremendously!
Anyone running 37” tires? I have seen a few pictures on social media with people running 37’s and it looks wild. I have also just watched Mud Madness on Discovery and I have tire envy lol. Let’s make a post dedicated to the big tires!
I had a terrible time trying to remove my passenger seat. After you remove the bolts you will need to use a lot of force to remove it. It took me 30 minutes to get out. Try sitting in the seat and rocking back and forth
Does any company make a drop in bed mat for the XP?
I would like to add one that’s nice and thick to help with noise. Let me know if you have found one!
I still have three sheets of deadening material left so I might do the doors or the roof, not sure what would be best. Might also get a thick bed mat, any recommendations?
Ok I got some time to work more on the sound deadening material, I finished the firewall, floors, and outside rear firewall. Also installed the terick floor mats and carpet kit. The noise level is definitely lower with the sound deadening and quiet clutch kit. I would like it to be quieter so...
Just started to install the Terick sound damping insulation. So far it’s pretty easy to work with. A heat gun helps make it sticky and easier to work with. I hope this helps bring down the noise levels inside the cab.
I got a new bolt and finished the install job. Overall it’s not to bad for a novice mechanic. I did not have to adjust the shims on the clutch so that made it easier. After driving it a bit I can say the rpm’s are lower so it is a bit quieter but overall not that much. I would not buy this kit...
I went to install my clutch kit today. Cut my hand trying to get the plastic tubing out of the way. Jacked up the backend to help get the plastic shroud out, also had to take out the dump box shock. I ended up breaking a bolt on the clutch kit because I wasn’t used to my new torque bar. Now I...
The wrap wouldn’t stick to the factory paint on the door and peeled back. Once it peeled back some paint came with it. We decided it would be best to sand away the paint to make the wrap seal the best. So far no more issues!
We used APA gloss Miami Blue and 3M gloss bright orange. Installer had some issues with the silver paint peeling so he did a bit of sanding so the wrap held better. So far it look great and is holding up!
Just installed some Polaris wing mirrors and some KFi plow markers. The KFi markers are $17 Canadian compared to $70 for the Polaris ones. Super easy to install both items. First mods done lol
The ADV is the same as the XP other than the fact that the bed doesn’t dump and it has a bed cap on it. Do you have facts that’s states the ADV bed cap will or will not fit on the XP? I’m looking for answers that make sense not some keyboard warrior that tells me the ADV is a SUV lol.
If you...
I was in the market for a fully enclosed side by side so I went to my local Polaris dealer today. They had just finished PDI a brand new 2024 XP 2 door. It was pretty much exactly what I wanted so I pulled the trigger. I’m getting a 72” plow with hydraulics installed and when that’s done it’s...
