the front already has the lift bracket in this kit so you couldn't in the front only rear. also once you go bigger than 2-3" lift the stock axles would limit you as well
I just got vfj's flash tune on my stock '22. It totally rips much more aggressively from take off to mid range. No matter how far forward i hang off the front, the front end is instantly up and over. Its a weapon for sure. It actually wont wheelie on grass and dirt anymore (stock tires) as it just throws masssive roost while spinning. But I'm wondering about tho is the max rpm seems significantly higher like maybe around 9500 which u would think wpuld give me more speed but i actually lost 1mph from 69 to 68. It feels like its reving past its peak power range of the stock cam and looses some pull after the midrange. Can i do the same thing we used to do with sleds and put heavier weight in the stock clutch to bring rpms back down into optimal range for even harder acceleration in the mid to top end?
@@rebelsoffroad Yep. Borrowed some spare bolts off of other sxs's we have had in the past which fortunately did the trick. Nothing new though, I've noticed in the last 10 years or so they seem to be using cheaper materials on hardware.
Do the long machines give you trouble at Hatfield McCoys? I sold my Maverick XXC and need a 4 seater for grandkids. We ride Hatfield McCoy a couple times a year. I’m not sure whether to go RMax4, Commander 4 seater or KRX4
The length Really didn’t give much trouble. The rmax4 is a nice machine as is the krx4. For Hatfield green/blue trails really can’t go wrong with either one! That said I’d probably go with krx4 though if it was me. The rmax tends to get hung up a little easier and a little more tippy on the rocky trails if you plan to hit any black/double blacks.
Thanks for the video. Fixing to do this myself. Looking back on it, do you think that was the easiest way to do the transmission mounts? Anything you'd do different? I've been staring at it for a week now, looks like a job for sure. Wondering if you had to take all of the rear plastic off? Thanks again!
Just to update my own comment. I did not have to take off all of my rear plastics or disconnect my tail lights. Most can skip that part. Agree with your video about disconnecting radius rods and axles as they will bind. Great video, I would not have attempted to do this job without it. Thanks!
Depends on what you like. I probably would not do 4hrs for it because I could go to BFR, or Hatfield in around that but I like the super technical hard stuff and there isn’t a lot of it there. It’s a very pretty park and there are enough scenic trails to keep you busy for about a day and a half I’d say. if you like that I’d say it’s worth it!
Thank you for watching! Most of these are Kawasaki KRXs 2020-2023s would be the year. Not much has changed on them during that time. Ron has a canam X3 in not sure the year. Most of us have 35” maxxis Rockzillas tires. John had 35” system3 xtr370 tires I think someone was running stock 31” carnivores.
That seems to be a common kit with a few variations out there. I got the one with the extra L/R wires to put blinking indicators on the dashboard. Also had a regular turn lever/horn/emergency flasher button for the steering wheel like a regular car instead of rocker switches. Super easy project. Had to install kit to make street legal for DoT regulations.
Yes it’s not that complicated to make so I can see where there would be a lot of similar kits out there. I like the price point of this one but I’ve thought about adding the in the cab indicators I think that would definitely be worth a little more $$
3 years late to the party, but thinking of adding some clearance to my '22 Brute since it sits too damned low for riding out here in the Rockies (constantly bangs on rocks, high centers in snow, puddle splashes get in the CVT air intake even riding slow, etc. etc.) Any idea if arched a-arms will conflict with shields? I have some hefty ones paired with my skid plate to protect everything from the lovely bowling ball sized rocks we have for road base out here, and I would *think* that the arched a-arms going higher means it's a non issue. I don't think you all run skids from watching the install videos, but figured you may still have some insight from handling them and seeing the fitment first hand Cheers from Wyoming / Colorado
Hey man the arched aarms will definitely help give you some extra clearance. It was probably the biggest improvement I’ve made in my brute. I think you probably won’t have an issue with ur skids/shields but I’m really sure because we don’t use them.
@@rebelsoffroad I literally just gone done tuning in my front end alignment by eye. I have a pretty good eye and tape measure and the tie rod are the only thing the previous owner upgraded and used the all balls setup and they work fantastic
I’ve got the brute performance billet tie rods and no complaints at all. Unfortunately they don’t offer them anymore but Great to see there are other options.
No issue if you throw out the poor quality castle nuts they give you that only have 2 or 3 poorly cut threads and get proper ones.... also NEVER put the washers on the taper side, they go under nut if necessary.
I tried that on one side and it still loosened. There’s no matching taper on the steering stem side so it doesn’t matter it’s just clamping force. Honestly you should not have to do any “fixes” for an aftermarket tie rod that is supposed to be bolt on.
We’ve rode with a few krx4s and my buddies x3 max which is even longer than the KRX4 they haven’t really had any trouble. H&M switch backs aren’t that bad with a little planning
We were there at a cabin they rent out a few miles away. We stopped in to talk to the owner watched you put your tent up. We saw you on the trail, that's when I knew I had see you on yt.
Was seeing what I could do without it locked in front. It's also alot easier to steer with front diff disengaged in technical trails till really needed.
