Looking for a couple of Trooper relays JD141B relays please email me at [email protected]

There was an update and now the T is made of steel. I went to Joyner when they were in Tempe and they gave them to us. There was many parts that should have been a recall ( the dealers had a web on parts that were changed) but most of the dealers never let us know. If you were lucky enough to find out, they would give them to you free. Here is a few of the parts I got. Clutch linage,larger rotors, bigger calipers,rubber boots for the steering,new rear fenders,brackets for rear end to be welded on, 2 different rear drive shafts, the last one being like a half shaft, new fuel sending unit, temp gauge, etc.

I might have made a mistake I though you had a Trooper. I have a trooper crown and pinion. Lenny has my phone number.Jerry

Hi Lenny things are not going as planned. I am in Toronto Canada for a wedding for three weeks then I am heading back to Canada. I have traded one of our Joyners off for a mini excavator. I am not sure what I'll bring down next year. I tried to meet up when you were in Nevada but things went wrong again. I got a piece of steel in my left up add so far I have lost about half the vision of my left eye. I call you when I get back to Canada. Jerry

I have one but it is in Canada. If you still do not have one e-mail me after April 13,2011

Hi what part of BC are you at. My machine is 2008 so many things were fixed for 2009. The first Joyners had two different drive shaft replacements as they had bad ujoints. I replaced my rear half shafts as I was having a lot of play back and forth and it turned out to be a bad ujoint and my crown gear was loose. They also have a rearend problem with the crown gear bolts coming loose. It is best to read all the things and you'll see the issues. I have a ton of spare parts, so if you are looking give me a call at "Removed by mod, Please send PM. Not safe to post personal info on an open forum, Sorry". or if you want to pick my brain about the Joyner give me a call. Jerry

I have one rear rim that has a little more off set . It should work for the front. It would work to get you home as long as you are not jumping the buggy.The stock rims are a full set and do not want to break them up. I want fifty dollars for the rim . I believe it is a ITP rim. Sorry about the delay in replying as I was on the road. Jerry

Harbor Freight has the switch in stock for around 5 dollars

Hi I have some Tropper 2 parts. 2 used rear fenders red 2 new rear fenders red 2 front stock rims 2 rear stock rims a complete set of smaller rotors and calipers a stock rear roll cage that goes over the motor rear tail lights I am looking for a rear end less crown and pinion, need spider gear washer and pin I,ll be heading to Arizona around the 1st of Oct. and could bring parts down as I live in Kamloops BC Canada Jerry 250-376-7694

Hi I have a couple of 2008 with heating problems. I found that the fans were running backwards from what I believe is correct. I changed both of them to flow out the back of the Trooper instead of sucking air towards the engine. I also spaced the fan out about 3/4 of a inch. which changed the amount of air flow about ten times the original amount. I use a water wetter with a 50% antifreeze mixture. One other problem is they will air lock. To get all the air out of the system you need to disconnect the small water line (about 1/4 inch) that starts around the thermostat housing and goes into a T with two larger hoses, drivers side. You need to remove the hose at the T and hold it in the air above the motor while holding your finger over the hose barb to keep the coolant in. Now you need to get some one to top off the rad. This sounds like your biggest problem to me. I changed the Plastic T at the front of the engine by the water pump and had problems heating up until I got the air out of the system. It only takes a small about of water extra but it really works. My trooper would heat running at a idle until I did this. The reason for changing the plastic T was they were breaking and Joyner gave me the new steel ones for free. The problem is that no one was telling me about upgrades, my dealer always said he new nothing about them and they were not having any problems with anything. I guess I picked the wrong dealer. I also put a oil cooler and a manual guage on one of the troopers but later found out the manual guage was reading about 25 degrees too hot. I do not think I needed the oil cooler for the way I use my machine but with the bad temp guage I was willing to try anything. If you try the tips I left you at the top I think your problem will go away.

I pay $55 a year in AZ

I have a red one which is stored inside and the hood is very faded. My son has a blue one and it hasn't faded at all.

Food for thought I messed up a cv joint on my atv. I miked the only bearing I had left then I went to my local bearing house and ask which bearing came with that size of ball. It came from a common bearing such as a 6205. I purchased the bearing for under ten bucks. When I got home I zipped cut the bearing a part and then I used the balls in my cv joint. That was about five years ago. No problems yet.

I have a complete set of stock rims, but I am not sure if I want to split them up. I think I have another rear rim that is not stock will have to check when I get home.
