Just wondering if anyone has had problems with bed warping coming from the heat from the muffler.. If I ride more than 5 minutes my bed starts warping from the heat.. Does anyone have any recommendations on what wrap or shield I can get to prevent this before my bed starts cracking or the warping becomes permanent.. I only have about 50hrs on the UTV.. Basspro said they haven’t had this problem from anyone else.. Hard to believe..

My 2021 800SX LE has the same problem. The bed seems to settle down when it cools down.  I just ignore it.  Some have tried to install a heat shield.  I don't see it as a big problem.

It does settle back down but it’s also turning a white color.. I just need to know if anyone has put some kind of heat shield on their’s so I’ll know what to get.. I’ve researched but had no luck in finding what is best to get..

Some people install a particular flowmaster heatshield on the  muffler to prevent warping and cracking of the bed. The 2023 beds were redesigned from what I've heard because of this issue. Tracker should replace it under warranty.

Yea when I really saw what was happening it was past the 18month warranty when I took it in.. The head shop guy called tracker and they would not do anything about it, ridiculous if it’s happening to others also.. If anyone knows what heat shield fits please let me know..

I would contact your regional tracker representative and tell them the problem. I've heard that approach can really get some results. Tracker knows about the problem so the rep may help you.

 I’ve got a 2022 Tracker 800SX LE and it has done the same thing with me. The manufacturer changed it under warranty. The funny thing is they did nothing to prevent it from ever happening again? What I did was get some heat shield material and some stainless steel zip ties and secured it to the muffle. I also wrapped the header pipe with high temp motorcycle type wrap. Have not noticed it bubbling up since. Flowmaster makes a heat shield that fits like a glove on the muffler but I had difficulty getting one so I made my own. The part number is 51017, maybe you can score one.

Yes they should take care of the problem for sure.. Bad material and design.. Thanks for the info.. I was wondering if that heat shield would fit.. Thanks

I have a 2022 same problem. In fact on my way to Bass Pro today for this plus Also watch for misadjusted tail gate latches that put too much pressure on the bed causing it to crack.

I have a 2000 800SX that tan an issue with latch mount and bed cracked. It happened during the first year. Seem light the sun made it expand then contract which weaken it. Took 3 months to get replaced under warranty.

      Help needed, Anyone recognize where this Internally Threaded Bolt belongs?
      By SouthernGypsy
      We have a 2018 Cub Cadet Challenger 400 and I found this Internally Threaded Bolt with a 10mm head size laying in the floor of the shop bay here on our ranch where we park the Cub Cadet.
      Trying to figure out where it belongs...

      sector e1 regen has stopped (mostly) working
      By mark walkom
      the regen braking on my e1 has stopped working unless (for eg) I am going down a hill in low and it's slowing things down to stick to the 10kph limit. when I drive and take my foot off the accelerator it's not initiating the regen to slow things down and instead just coasts at whatever speed it is at, or speeds up as the regen is not limiting it. the brake lights work, so it's probably not a fault with the sensor on the brake pedal
       
      hoping someone else might be able to provide some suggestions on things to check, as the mob that I bought it off seem to have gone silent on me

      Hisun Sector e1 Battery replacement: any tips?
      By didgeridoo
      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!
