| Here is a picture from Rush. Had a awesome ride. This thing is like a new Rzr. Bumps that would have jarred my kidneys out before I didn't even feel. The doors make it so nice too. I do got to get some.XP flares though. My buddy with me was probably 250lbs. I go 400lbs. So for the machine got a heck of a workout. | |

| Yeah I thought the winch cable had been disconnected. When the hook broke on the tow strap there was about 5-7 feet of slack in the winch cable. An xp900 pulling WFO and my 800 almost to the floor made for a bad outcome. There is a video of it, you can hear the 2 snaps. 1 as the strap let go and the other when my winch exploded. Never fear, the guy who built my doors is gonna take the bumper and repair it(he is also the one we were pulling out)LOL Promark sent me a part list and told me anything I needed to repair it would be provided for shipping.......... | |

| Your rzr has really turned out nice...thanks for the update on all of it. I have never seen a winch do that before....it don't look like it will be that hard to fix though. | |

| What made matters worse was this was the first time he had it out since he installed the bumper and winch. | |

Not having fun if your not breaking something... Just glad that cable or strap did not come back on you guys ( I have seen that happen ( had a cable to a strap and the strap broke)) .. | |

| what happened was first kymedic tried to winch out the stuck rzr and couldn't. next they hooked a strap to the stuck rzr to kymedic and then from kymedic to a rzr xp but no one disconnected the cable. when they started tugging on the stuck rzr, the strap on the stuck rzr broke and when the winch cable extended, you see what happened. | |

| Turned out great! I think you're going to need a set of these in addition to the front XP flares.

| Decided to go for these after looking around for a while. At $150 for the complete set they are cheaper than any other option and look pretty good. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Polaris-RZRS-RZR4-Extreme-Fender-Flare-Extenders-Mud-Buster-/130627927096?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item1e6a07fc38 | |

| Well, I got it all back together and its better than ever. Longhair from RRR done an excellent job at repairing my bumper and making it even better. He added some much needed bracing and asked me if I like the loop on them. Here is it with the bumper and I also Added Mud Busters extended fender flares I bought off Fleabay... Also Promark repaired the winch under warranty, no questions asked... | |
