COULDN'T LOOK AT IT ANYMORE, SO LAST NIGHT i TOOK THE SAWSAL TO IT

had to porta power thebars wider to get them to line up..

this morning I took it to the shop for the boys to weld..
we removed the back top section , cut the center top section out, and added 1 1/2 sleves to the pieces

I heard that if you cut it in half and make it 3" longer that it will handle night and day better. Then you have room to install an air filter from a Peterbuilt semi truck so you dont blow the motor. Then if you cut it down the middle and make it 2" wider you can run Harley Davidson belts that wont break. Last but not least.....if you cut it in half sideways and make it 2" taller you can run a Busa motor and make it fast. At that point though you will lose the 4wd and you'll also have to get better arms, reinforce the frame and better shocks and axles and CV's or they will break. The only thing you'll have to do at that point is throw away the cage you just shortened and have a new one built that will hold when you crash it.

Other than all that.....you'll be good to go. Might need bigger paddels too

then welded it all up and ground the welds flush

then added a new horizonal bar and top center bar

Wanna know why from an Engineering standpoint why Polaris had that "peak" or "rise" in the top of the cage?!?!?!

we painted it with satin black,
here,s a 6'1'' driver...

heres the welder.. 5' 8''

all done, less than a 24 hr period, ready for the dunes if it quits rain'n

....No

That looks really good.

Nice work.

x2 looks really good for a stock modded cage.

I like it,

thanks for the kind words, they're few and far between around here...

just a option to those who can't /don't wanna spend a bunch of money right now...


thanks again...
KOTH

thanks, I look'd at it a long time before I could take the saw to it...lol
guess I'm getting old...

Looks 100% better, and the price was right!

I for one would like to know why they made it so fugly to begin with!!

Looks much better! The beginning pictures had me a little leary but the final pics it turned out nice.

I too would like to know why Polaris designed the cage to look so stupid. Obviously its not for looks so must be a safety issue and my only guess is so it rolls over or at least on its side and takes all the pressure off the passenger/driver area.

or

they had a lot of extra tubing lying around and decided to use it up.

It looks good, but if you add seat sliders or suspension seats your heads going to pop out the top. Just Sayin............

I'm gonna add the 1'' lowering mounts..

my head wouldn't pop out the top if I sat on 4 phone books... that hoop is waaaaaay up there

very nice.. looks way better and should be stronger..

very,very cool... my friend and i are looking to pick up a couple of rzr, this was the first mod i wanted to do, you beat me to it and did an awesome job!!!! thanks for posting! and showing us whats possible....

Thank God the guy who designed this didnt work for Polaris

owned again

got the windshield on... ordered 1'' seat lowering bases and harness's from utvcrap .. not cause it needs them but like the idea of lowering the weight and being safe

Looks a lot sporter !

thanks, got a front bumper comming, looks kinda naked w/o

Looks great!


Well done

Looks way better then stock. Nice.

thanks all, setting here wait'n on the ups truck, thought, might as well clean the garagefffffffffffffffffffffffk what a mess
