2022 Polaris Ranger XP1000 tire upgrades & test ride

[@kapperoutdoors]

Okay, after careful consideration and looking at it several times I did order a 1.25 in spacer set and I'm going to try that first. Stay tuned to see how that goes! Thank you have a good one and I hope to see you on the next video.

Check with your local dealer. Polaris makes Arched A Arms for front and rear of the machine. Also Bora wheel spacers. But a Dremel can trim those/that rub spot/spots. Be safe

[@bobheitz730]

You may need to make adjustments to your clutch with the bigger tires. Enjoy your new machines.

[@maraudermitchelli]

I was expecting the tires would rub. On my Defender I installed A arms which were offset 2” forward if it continues to rub you may consider this upgrade. I have a video on the A arm swap. I love the. Rims and tire they look great .

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yeah I am looking at all of my options and weighing them out. A arms, bigger spacers, lift kit.. I'll get it worked out though before too long! Thanks man, maybe we can try a collab ride somewhere in between you and me on the map..?

[@bobfish9584]

Try adjusting the shocks to raise the front up a little. It may rub on the passenger side when someone is riding on that side.

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yeah I'll be posting an update soon. I jacked the shocks up 2 notches. Don't want to go more than that as I enjoy a nice soft ride. I'll continue to work at it. Tried some spacers the other day too.

Dont feel bad on bushhoggin....I finally just got 5 acres of teasel mowed. Should have done it 3 weeks ago

[@kapperoutdoors]

Well I am farther behind than that and the rain won't quit lately! But I'd still rather have this then ever live in a city again..

[@clarkwheeler8764]

I'd leave things alone. But I know you're OCD about things like that. Prolly wont rub when your tires get half worn out.

[@paulconklin]

Actual tire size will vary. Curious to see what the BFG's actually measure out to be compared to the stock tires.

[@photocontrol]

They look good and a nice smooth ride!

[@bretts1]

Last Machine? What to do a bet Kapper? Did you get any of the huge rains?

[@kapperoutdoors]

lol it could be the last machines! Yes we've got lots of rain!!

[@normdickson2438]

Heat gun then push back the plastic worked for me

[@kapperoutdoors]

Good idea! A little late now, lol. Just sold them tires I just could not live with that rubbing.

[@CedarBluffRustics]

Hey those look the tires that are supposed to be on my machine 🤔

[@kapperoutdoors]

No such thing.. You would not like the super smooth ride anyways... :)

[@bobpaterson1845]

Mr K you are such a comedian 🙄 "I know I buy equipment but this is gonna be the last 🙄😳🤣🤣👍

[@kapperoutdoors]

lol well I am serious!! But I am also weak when it comes to the smell of a new machine!! :0

[@doug292]

What was the wheel offset?

[@rigorousone1324]

Save that (This is the last one) clip for the next new machine video. lol Whatcha doin with the stock tires/wheels?

[@kapperoutdoors]

lol I hear you! Not sure yet, I was going to sell them to cut the cost of the new stuff but might just save them for backup...

[@rigorousone1324]

@@kapperoutdoors Might be interested if I ever get down there

[@abrahamzayas133]

I saw another video of yours that you put the 1.5” spacer on. Did you get the same size spacer for all 4 corners? 😊 thank you for the info

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yes I did put all 4 spacers on. I got rid of these tires and went back to stock since I still could not remove the rubbing. Thanks

[@jmoo72]

What do u think about the new XP 1500??

[@kapperoutdoors]

wow! That's a lot of muscle!! But I still have a few years to pay off the 1000! Cheers!

[@jamesburns4431]

Will wheel spacers work?

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yes I mentioned that at the very end of the video. Looking at options

[@crisgourley3653]

I have a 2020 ranger 1000xp crew north star ultimate, where did you get these tires and would they fit my unit? Would I need to add a lift kit?

[@TuckerC270]

Lookin good boss

[@jerrysmith5590]

Where did you get your wind shield wiper system. I have a 2020 Polaris Ranger 1000xp

[@kapperoutdoors]

It was a polaris system

[@bradhansmann6051]

Did you measure them at all? Just curious what the actual size is. Thinking about getting them.

[@kapperoutdoors]

I ended up selling them because of the rubbing, but they sure rode nice..

[@drunkdunc8738]

I can see why the tires rub Kapper… they’re made of rubber 🤔🍻

[@kapperoutdoors]

Nope.. They 'Rub'... me wrong... because they are political tires!! :0

[@brandonmiller3786]

Have you had any problems with the roof joint’s bowing up above the front doors on your 2022? Thanks

[@kapperoutdoors]

Not that I am aware of. Have not noticed anything unusual.

[@kipcudd7253]

I keep different lengths of pipe and diameters for cheater pipes as I ain't getting any younger, 67 with heart issues, gotta make life tolerable any way I can. My bull strength I used to have got out of the pasture and disappeared! Lol!

[@kapperoutdoors]

Man you ain't kidding! It took me awhile to find the right size cheater!! But without it, you can tear something if you reef on it too much! Take care man thanks

[@jerrysmith5590]

Do those rims come in a 15”

[@kapperoutdoors]

I believe you can get them in any size with custom offsets.

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

I bet they don’t rub after you aired them down to 12psi now lol. Instead of the 25psi you actually had in them haha

[@kapperoutdoors]

yeah they still do! I am going to swap back the original 29's because the next step would be forward A arms and I don't want to void the warranty. Bummer!

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

@@kapperoutdoors 2.5” lift and super atv steering stops and you will be fine, that’s whhat mine has with 30” tires. Can’t even notice a difference in steering either,

[@johnphillipsjr7238]

Use a real impact 🤦‍♂️
