You and Dargo should get a book together about RTV design modifications, parts and what not. You could start out offering it up on the internet. Oh, just ask Mohamed if you can piggyback off the ultimate label.

There are some pretty serious changes you have made that could really spin an aftermarket effort, people will pay for them!

( Now bczoom, about splitting those costs... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif )

OK... To make this fair, I'll pay for Dargo's shipping. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Just got back from testing my Essex 589 27" tires and lift kit. Drove the entire property and put it on the worst hills I could find. These tires really pull. Even on the real steep roads the RTV in low gear would turn the tires. I went up two hills that stopped me last time with the stock ATV tires from Kubota. It is just as wet as the last time, if not worse.

I think they are a good choice and fit the machine very well for HD off road use. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Gotta love those 589's!!! I run them on my one ATV in the winter. Have you tried yours on a paved surface? If so, how do they run? On my ATV they're OK and run straight but you get a pretty intense massage...

Not on a paved road but a hard packed gravel road. It ran very nice with 12 lbs of air in all tires but I could feel a little vibration, but not bad. I did a little driving in the pasture and they didn't cut up the grass like I thought they would.

Monday morning I have to go to the dealership to p/u my windshield wipers. YES!! they are now in stock. Going to ask them to call on the Camo Soft Cabs and get ETA. That's all I need from them and I can finish up my lights that mount to the roof. (New Camo Soft Cab has a camo plastic roof to match the body.)
