I put the Inferno heater in which is automotive style-maybe the same that CFMOTO uses, it has two outlets and 2 defrost ducts. I have the bypass valve which is a must. I'm sure the little motor will put off more heat when its working snow, as in low range the rpm is pretty high.
Ive been working on adding some steel to the bottom of the UTV as in my opinion it seems very weak for a plow blade that has a mount that sticks out so far. A mid mount would be much better but you would have to heavily modify the standard tube mounts that come with most generic blade/mount kits. I just removed the worthless plastic skid plate and added a 16 gauge skid plate with some 1/4 thick stringers that go to about the middle of the machine, hopefully this will dissipate some of the abuse. The pic shown is of the bottom, the other 3d pic is of the general makeup of the front end. The plow and all the front suspension stuff is relying on the skinny part. My understanding is that this type of construction is pretty common around most of the manufactures.
I mapped all the holes on the skidplate using a digitizing probe with my cnc router, so they are pretty accurate. I'm pretty sure at the factory they just had a template at poked the holes for the skidplates after the frame was welded I will post the DXF files for those who want to make their own.
I can nest my front and rear windshield onto a 4x8 sheet of 1/4 poly so most people can go to a plastic shop with a cnc router, give them the file and presto...windows..I have to add some pics tho, and if they are ok with just mounting with VHB tape. BTW the machine gets very loud when you put in windows, common among most manufactures...
Now I just need spring blocks or air bags for the front end...
