Im new to the side by side thing. I have been into atvs for a long time. Right now all I have is a 2-stroke yamaha golf cart with a 6 inch lift. Im looking into a side by side cause im feed up with getting stuck and not having the pulling ability. I dont know which one to get. I want a diesel 4x4. It would only have to be a 2 person unit. It would be used around the farm. Is there a lift kit for them? Which one do yall suggest??? Definatly diesel!!! I love diesel power. Im currently installing a 12v cummins into my 1999 f-250 ford super duty with a 5.4 gasser. A few years ago I built a suzuki samuri. It has a d-50 dodge diesel, 4 link suspension in back, roll cage, jeep cherokee axles, fully hydro steering, and 33" tsl boggers.

That's a cool project Cummins in Ford... I'm in planning stages for doing same to my buddy's 79 f350..... about diesel utv well the only diesel ones i know about are for mostly work like bobcat kubota and few others. It would be great if we had diesel option but there's few of us that already have or is going to swap another engine into our utv (team joyner trooper t2) but i recommend you shop around... There's lot of information here

One of shop that sell parts for t2 is in process of swapping in different engine... I was considering doing an v6 swap for the torque

Like Charlie said.. There's ton of stuff out for polaris and Yamaha and other mainstream brands.

I have had no experience with any other UTV and I was wanting a rzr4 then one day on way home drive this trooper t2 caught my eye and rest is history.

My advice for u is to go to dealers and try to test drive few or maybe u can get lucky and someone would let u try out their UTV and then u should see if there's Parts that u want for the UTV.

I said that last part because when I got t2 home I started looking for aftermarket parts and couldn't find much at first until this Forum everyone came up with their own ideas.

Whatever u chose, enjoy it and feel free to come back to just say hello or whatever u want.

Good luck on finding a utv

      Want a new work UTV; who and what should I look for?
      By FTG-05
      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!

      As with any forum you join, there is a requirement for an obligatory introduction... and that seems fair. How else do you get that first post in there without jumping in with some stupid question right out of nowhere?

      Hi. I'm Space Ghost. Well, not really, but that was my call sign on my last deployment before an IED made me non-deployable, and I an now retired/disabled, and living on my wonderful VA disability. I did almost 28 years in total between the Army, Army Reserve, and National Guard. 1 deployment with the Reserve (Desert Storm) and 3 with the Guard (1 pre, and 2 post 9/11)

      Married (going on 30 years) one of each. (both out of the nest)
       
      Just picked up my first side by side a couple days ago. A 2020 Can-Am Defender HD10 DPS 6x6. 

       
      It's in pretty good shape, but as you can probably tell, it's sitting a bit high. Former owner put a lifting collar on the shocks. 

       
      The good = almost 17" of ground clearance. (30" tires) 
      The bad = incredibly steep driveline angles, and a pretty stiff ride. 
       
      They will be coming off. 
       
      Other than that... clean as a pin and appears very well maintained. 
       
      Looking forward to seeing what this forum can bring, and hoping I can bring something in return.
