A Little Carnage
Well had the RZR on a track last weekend with the North Texas Raptor Owners. The RZR was doing extremely well on the track, passing a few trucks like it was nothing. Decided to push it a little hard, then things let loose. All the damage is caused by a single sheared bolt.

Damn that sucks. Good amount of carnage because of one bolt

bent frame? does that equal a replacement? or is it fixable?

Yep. Mint was a blast. Didn't end the way we wanted it too, but got some good experience and battled the desert out there. Just couldn't catch a break
|
That must be an awesome experience. Hope to see some pics

Back together. Just have to test it now.
Upgraded to a thicker plate, bent shock shaft back in to place, straightened frame mount, upgraded to Caterpillar bolts instead of cheap bolts used before. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/03/18/a5ujeguq.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/03/18/7u8amyne.jpg |
