Thanks to Pacific Eagle and Smitty 42 for the explanation!

Pacific Eagle UTV Thanks for that recommendation. Could you take a moment to explain why that's a good idea for me and many other new side x side riders?

Thanks for the insight. I'm running the stock 27's right now and hoping to avoid the spacers until upgrading to a larger wheel.

I'm about to install a 2 inch lift kit on a 2022 U force 1000. It is not the XL version and I'm looking for opinions on whether I need the wheel spacers or not?

Nice ideas !!  Thanks for the pictures!

I'm looking for some good ideas on how to mount a license and an SMV sign on the Uforce 1000. Thanks for your input!

Harry bagpipes is right. The drivers side seat belt has to be worn or clicked in for top performance.

It looks as if there are 4 or 5 different settings I could use. Right now it is set at the second softest setting available. If I tighten the suspension one or two notches on the front and back shocks equally, will that be alright? I know it will be a bit stiffer ride but I'm looking for the happy medium of comfort and still clearing certain hard obstacles.

UForce 1000 / Re: Factory heater or after market

Wish they would have done that to mine! Got it back today and every plastic fitting has been replaced with brass. No antifreeze leaks so far but I didn't have time to really put it to the test and to be honest I'm not convinced the problem is fixed. If anyone knows how to post a picture from an I phone to this site please chime in. Thx

You might be better off tapping into that clutch vent heat.

Funny you would ask that. I'll try to post a pic as soon as I get it back from the shop. Had to take it back today. Checked it out this morning and found it was still leaking. Shake my head.  Not sure how to get pictures uploaded to this site but I'll try.

Yes, I have an after market heater installed in my fully enclosed UForce 1000.  Door windows do open slightly for ventilation. Can't really compare it to the factory, but it works very well once I had all the hose fittings replaced due to leaking antifreeze fluid. Installer used plastic fittings that were garbage but they replaced  each one with brass at no charge and I'm good to go. I questioned whether or not I made the right decision to even get it this past summer.  I did not have the heater turned on. The inside of the cab got so hot from engine heat  through the plastic behind the seats, my initial thought was " I may not even need this heater in the winter"!! Well I finally a chance to test it during the hunting season and not only did it keep the front window defrosted, it kept the inside of the cab comfortable. Engine heat didn't seem to be a factor. I'll either have to take the front and rear windows off in the summer or add some heat shield to the engine side of the plastics. If anyone has found a solution to engine heat in the summer... please respond.   Ed

UForce 1000 / Changing the spring pre-load.
December 09, 2022, 06:45:00 PM
Has anyone changed their spring pre-load? I was wondering if there were any advantages/disadvantages in doing so. If you increase the spring pre-load will it give you any more ground clearance or are you just in for a stiffer ride??
