polaris rad issues

[charjay 88]

Anyone have any suggestions on rad upgrades or relocating rad? Plugged up real bad in siltly,muddy water. Maybe moving rad higher?

pull the rad out. get a mount made for it and mount it to your front rack. then run your hoses. very easy and cheap to do. saves alot of time and hassle on the trail. i am going to be doing mine soon.

I purchased this rad washer a few years ago.
Runs off a garden hose or trailer sprayer
Just another idea to get the mud out

if you want to use your stock rad ive got mounts made up for 07 800 sportsmans and you can still use your front trunk.i have all the hose lengths ect i can send you a pic if needed

crap i deleted all my pics of my old 500 when i had the rad relocated and snorkels. i had it so you could still put stuff in the front box but it was no where close to water tight. and you could open the front lid all the way.

Ah that sucks...... I have been searching for some different ideas and then I will figure something out. I want to get it all done this winter with the heavier springs also and I still have that shifting prob. to fiqure out also

o i found a pic still left on my computer. only one i have.

 

[messinaround]

That looks good but how did you get the snorkles to seal when you open and close the box?

 

[OnlyPolaris]

the stacks are 2" pvc and i used 1.5" spa hose. so the hose runs up inside the stacks all the way to the top.

 

[messinaround]

Hey.... thats a good idea I will consider that when doing mine just not sure if 1.5" is big enough on an 800 considering how big the factory belt intake and exhaust is Has anyone else done this on an 800 with 1.5?

 

[OnlyPolaris]

you will need 2 1.5" intakes for the air intake and 1.5" is fine for the belt. lots of people have done it.
