Well I have had an absolute shit of a week. My Uncle who has been fighting cancer for 20 years has finally lost his battle but the real shock was the man who designed and made my Renegade Enclosure, Leigh at only 47 years old, passed away of a massive stroke but my 98 year old Grandma, bless her, survived 3 small Strokes this week. Leigh, who I have only had the absolute pleasure of knowing for only 2 & a half months had made such an impression on me, both with his quality of products and the man himself, that I told him that I would only advertise & sell his Enclosures from now on. Leigh Dodds, 8 December 1961 - 4 June 2009, R.I.P my friend. Even if you didn't have the gift that you had, you and I would of gone on to be grate mates and would of had that weekend on Moris Hill.

kandlinaz, don't throw away those soft doors, your need them for winter but I would suggest you upgrade the zips. If you don't, your know what I mean the next time you go through mud with them. Upgrade to thick plastic marine grade zips.

George and I are so sorry to hear about your losses, Michael. Your family and your friends family are in our prayers. Please give your Grandmother a hug from us when you visit her, she sounds like my grandmother, one tough little lady.

Thanks Cinda, sounds like they came out of the same mould. I did a quick edit on that post because I was rambling on a bit. Back to business...

I mentioned the zip upgrade because when the mud dries in the zip area where it is under tension, it separates. The better quality marine zips handle this problem as well as being more water tight.

Cheers Mike.

I am sorry to here that I hope next week is better. My mother has been fighting cancer for fifteen years ten year's ago she was sent home to die after her bone marrow transplant did not take. But some how she pulled through and was cancer free for ten years. Three months ago she was given two months and she is still here but it is only a matter of time. She has to get blood and platelets one or two times a week and that will only work for so long.

Hey all!

My husband and I bought one of the first hard tops Joyner released for the T2. The top, front windshield area and the back window area are all molded of the same fiberglass as the body. It is also the same color as the body. The windshield and back window are plexiglass. The doors are soft, and attach to the door opening with screws. They opened with a huge zipper, much like a tent door. We did not like the doors at all, so we took them off. The door around the bottom where you get into the buggy stuck up above the frame about an inch, creating a real tripping hazard if you tried to get in and out of the buggy in a hurry.

As for bringing in dust, that does happen, but not intolerable. Running without the doors keeps enough air flow for us. There is a little more engine heat in the cab, but again not intolerable. All in all, it has been a good investment for us, simply due to the protection from the sun it gives. It will also help keep you dry in a gentle rain....hopefully the wind isn't blowing!

We sell hard doors for your joyner. They are on back order but they fit very good and close well .

I was just on Team Joyner's website looking at the hard tops for the T2 - this is the first I have seen the camo hard top with soft doors - that is exactly what ours looked like. Again, we did not like the doors because of the way they zipped open, and the tripping hazard they created. When you opened the windows, the flap just hung, with no where to tuck it. We assumed it would fly in the wind. We never left the house with it, while the doors were attached. The doors are not easily removable, either. Hubby says he is going to modify removable jeep doors and attach those.

They have hard doors for T2 They come in black They do have the doors in stock cost 275.00 ea.May be camo to.

      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.

      Looking for information on installing a OBD port or a lite to read codes in ECM. 
      I can not find a OBD port or a lite to read codes on this R2 with 800cc. 
      I have code readers and adapters for most ATV's. From what I've found so far. They don't have a connection for to read codes. I may be wrong. That's why I'm asking. 
      This R2 has had new IAC, TPS, MAP, fuel pressure regulator and fuel pump replaced. This was done by neighbor to try to stop surging. It still surges on start up and then settles down. But once you hit the accelerator it revs up to 2000+ rpm and stays till you block off IAC port in throttle body with finger. Once you do that it once again settles down and idles perfectly.
      I want to know what the ECM is reading to help dio it.
      This joyner is the first one I've run across. Well second one in a week. (my neighbors 2 of them) The other was a trooper with the 1100cc chery motor that had been setting for years. After cleaning up the fuse box connections. It runs like a top. Had to replace all gages with aftermarket gages. Water, oil, gas, amp. Only problem one was the water temp using original sending unit. Had to install 150 ohm resistor on the input wire to get it to read correctly + - 5 degrees. Close enough. Gas sending unit was/is for a boat tank 6" tall. All SS so it should last forever. 
      thanks Dan D. aka staind

      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

      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 ????
