Any possible way to change gearing in these. If a guy was to go up to 30 or 31" tires, would be nice to change gears to get back to original gearing for the super low granny gear for crawling or just dodging trees out in my woods.

Unless your rock crawling and want a super low granny, It's good the way it is with the 31" tires I have. I can even do a good job on the rockcrawl jeep trails as is. Not easy to change the diffs or trany for different gearing. I'm working on planitary gearing for the four hubs to get the low low type gearing but I have a long ways to go and not yet sure I can actually get it to fit and work the way I would like. Either way, it will be some time.

We just put 30" ITP's on a trooper and put all of the bars on, (fender bars, rock rails, etc.). It did take some power but I like it so far. I found out yesterday that Joyner is trying to get a ring & pinion set that is lower and a set that is higher to offer for the trooper. I did'nt ask specificly about the renagade. Also there is a company making a fifth gear ass. that you slide in that will bump up top speed on a stock trooper. I am waiting on the info to find out just how much for sure. One person said 70 and one said 79.

I've been thinking about getting a machine shop to build me new gears but if Joyner is coming out with lower ones i might wait and get them. i want to go back to tires but i want Interco Super Swamper TSL Boggers http://www.intercotire.com/tires.php?id=13&g=1 i really want the 33 x 14 but may settle for the 31 x 12.5. the best way to go would be Lenny's planetary gears on all corners to reduce the torque on the rest of the drive train.

I will try to find out when they think they will have the sets available and let you know. I think the planitary system will be awesome, but the added weight would be my concern.

That would be awesome if you can find that info out.

Thanks

I talked to Casey at Joyner yesterday and he said that they havent started making them yet, but that it is in the making and that he would tell me when he got proto's in. I would think that it may be awhile yet but I think it is a good idea. If anyone else gets a price on cutting new ones, I would like to get some info on them, price, where at, etc.. As soon as I find out more I will post it.

      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!

      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.

      I got a utv from lowes it has one tire in the back that is the same size as the front tires so it has 3, 26-9-14 and 1 26-11-24. i want to change the rear tire to the same one as the other.So instead of buying a new rim will a 26-11-24 tire fit on a 26-9-14 rim.

      My father-in-laws 750 hisun will not change gears unless he completely turns the motor off then shifts.  I thought it might be a brake problem but he thought clutch.  He took it to a jackleg down the road and he basically charged him $300 and did not fix a thing.  Any ideas would be useful because he really can’t afford throwing money at it.
