    Military CAT 420D IT Backhoe

    If you (I did) purchased a Cat 420D backhoe from Govplanet or other source, you may experience battery drain. Parasitic draw. The cause on mine was found to be the 12V/24V balancer under the green box on top of the battery box. There is a recall on these for fire hazard. The reason these are...

    OSP I had a problem with a Govt agency. Wrote a letter to my congressional Rep. Cleared the problem up. I guess Govt agencies do no like Congressional visibility. She stated on her website, she cannot force an approval but she can require them to respond with an explanation. Everyone...

    Thanks ACee, I need a rim to use as a spare tire. I can buy a tire but I cannot find the rim. The diesel MRZR-D4 tire, not the gasser tire rim. Dave

    So you just ordered from Polaris, RZR 900 parts. Thanks for the paint tip. Some of my panels are fading. Did you install a new battery? If so what did you buy? Polaris is being a real Delta Hotel about selling MRZR-D4 parts. Leaving us to guess RZR 1000 parts.

    Rebuild looks really great. Where did you get the paint? Part number? Can you give us the part numbers for the switches and other new parts? I have a diesel MRZR-D4. Do you have a part number for the rim or size and type?

    This is a 4x8 sheet of cold rolled steel. I think its 1/8 inch thick. Because its thin it formed well on the roll bars. Attached with 4 each 2" exhaust clamps with thread locker. I washed it with car soap to make sure its clean before paint. The coating is Rustoleum truck under coating from...

    I know he is a mod. I am a mod on a cabin forum and was a mod on the Polaris forum (over 20 of us to handle that crowd). I solved a Polaris 850XP problem with the factory members where the crankcase tube was sucking oil into the air filter when Polaris customer service failed and the dealer...

    Polaris MRZR-D4

    Yeah, I see it. That's really weird. The for sale shock pic on the Walker site shows that top threaded ring only half way down the threads. The pic I posted shows that ring all the way down fully compressing the top spring. I'll call Walker and ask them about it. Hopefully there is some...

    I found what maybe the MRZR Winch manual. The tell tail is the pictures. Let me know what you think.

    The service manual shows oil filer part number 3040038. Google just the number and results show the filter from several sources. This should save time instead of going through Kohler. I paid $15.00 each and bought two from a Kohler distributor.
