but anyways i cant stop it from overheating.... i heard about triple core rads aftermarket for brutes... anyone have any ideas where to find them??? does reloacating the rad make that big of a difference???

Got a brute just like yours all done up.
I have overheating issues when going in the mud.
From what I've heard is that the highlifter triple flow rads are awesome but are expensive.
Try just installing a manual fan switch, very cheap and easy. Let it run the whole ride.

i had the same problem with my 08 brute 750 efi
i relocated the rad on top of rack and built a shroud over it and no problem
doesn't take much mud to make it over heat

I have a 650 and I dont have overheating issues but the high flow pump is a great idea.Cleaning your rad after every ride,I clean mine and then let it sit untill its dry,then I soak it in Spray Nine and clean it again,it surprises me how much is left in the rad after the first cleaning.
