Hi everyone, I'm a new member with a trooper t2 and am glad that I have found a good forum with other Joyner owners, first question I have for you guys(I'm sure there are going to be quite a few in the future) is my battery is dead and won't recharge so what battery do I replace it with? I went to walmart, but could find any batteries that looked similar. And where can I get a replacement fender one of mine cracked.

Thanks for your help guys!

Buy an Optima, their expensive but they are the only battery that will last years (6-8) with the jarring. You'll have to make the battery box bigger.

Lawn mover batteries. I run one in my race car.

My concern with the lawn mower battery is it's reserve power. They are real cheap like 25-30 bucks and you could easily buy an extra to bring on remote trips. I went with the Optima, the marine Optima, not only because of it's duribility but because it has a lot of surplus reserve capacity. I'm always concerned about getting out in the middle of no where and ending up with a dead battery or starting problem for some reason. I've run Optimas in my truck and found them to last far longer then flat plate batteries. Optimas use a wound up coil for plate design which doesn't flex with jarring. When I bought my current Dodge diesel it had 1-1/2 year old batteries in it. I switched them with the 3-1/2 year old Optima batteries out of my old Dodge diesel and have run them already another 2 years. The marine battery is expensive though, $170 and the lawnmower battery will work.

Best back up battery is the Buddy System. That is why I don't like to go out that often by myself. Sometime you just can't help it so we have a lot of miles alone. I do agree, have a great battery. Good in this case is not enough!

      Travel time question
      By Greg Kilgore
      I would really like to know what you guys think about this. I'll try not to ramble and make it as clear as I can.
       
      I took this new job with companyX as a fiber splicer a year ago. I have a 45' bucket truck and 10or12 x 8 ft enclosed splice trailer I have to take home. Within the last 6 months all the management in the splice dept left. Now the power/construction management and higher ups are filling in. Just recently we were told travel to our 1st job is not payable even though we are in a company vehicle. 
      We are union so I asked the union business manager about this. His reply was be grateful you were paid travel as long as you were and that you don't have to drive your POV to the job.
       
      Last week I had 50hr total. The job area is 4-4.5 hrs away. My time was reduced to 44.5 hrs since we were told this travel thing on Tuesday of that week. I wasn't hired for this area. I was hired for area a lot closer to home. 
       
      Pay is good. Work is not hard. Insurance is through the union and so far pretty good.
      But I hate the thought of having to work extra just to make a 40hr paycheck. Anyone who has to drive as part of their job knows windshield time is not easy.
       
      Anyway what do you guys think. Should I look for a different job or just suck it up because of the decent pay and health insurance.

      Hello All...
           Just bought a 2014 Massimo 500 UTV.  It;s not running at the moment, but hopefully will soon.  I need a seat for it also (passenger side, if it makes any difference.)  It is a crank-but no start situation.  Just now starting to read the boards for solutions.  Apparently these models are well known for this issue.  If anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to chime in, it would be greatly appreciated.
      Thanks

      New member From Northern Indiana . and coolant ??????
      By Tarak1980
      I have a Coleman HS400UTV-5 got it manly for hunting and spending time with the grandkids
      The one problem I am trying to avoid. My son borrowed it last summer and said it ran hot so he added water to it . I do not know how much he put in so I would like to drain most of it and add new coolant to protect it this winter. I can find no drain cock or any way of draining it besides loosening a hose.  Any suggestions ????
