Just a heads up for all you rhino owners. Buddy of mine has a 09 rhino. Last wk end he was complaining of a noise coming out of the front diff when engaged in 4x4. After looking at it, we noticed that out of three brackets that hold the housing in place, only one was still in, which caused the whole housing to sag down and u-joint to drag on the frame. One of the rear bolts was gone and the 6" long front one was snapped off and laying in the belly plate. When it broke it took a big chunk out of the bracket on the diff housing. We were able to replace the missing and broke bolts. Checked the one that was in, and it was loose also. After talking to a dealer, was informed that this seems to be a ongoing problem. Might be a good idea to take bolts out and put lock tight on. Could result in an expensive repair if ignored.
