Polaris Ranger XP 1000 Headache Rack install

[@jimriley1785]

Thanks so much, for the awesome explanation of the install. I tried putting this on my Northstar, the instructions were very vague. I went back and after watching your video, it was a breeze. I owe you a beer for that sir! keep up the awesome videos!

[@UTVDIRT]

No problem Jim! I am glad I could help. Thanks for watching!

Hey fellas thanks for waking me up . It's 2.40am and I'm loving every minute of your vid lol. Well good news is I'm finally taking the plunge and am about 70 per cent there . Was at the polaris dealership yesterday looking at the camo ranger 1000 to match my sportsman 570. Have to go in this morning and if we can make the numbers work and the wife gives me the nod . I should be the proud owner of a ranger by the next few days . Wish me luck. Loved the video btw

[@UTVDIRT]

Nice! I love the camo color! I hope you get your new unit. You will not be disappointed. Sorry about waking you up lol! Let me know how it goes.

[@CowboyJudge3006]

Been looking at these for my 1000. I think you guys just sold me. Thanks for the reviews. Keep up the good work.

[@UTVDIRT]

Thank you! Real easy install and I think it looks real good on the unit.

[@tbatkins1]

Love my headache rack. It really changes the look for the better

[@UTVDIRT]

Yep looks more rugged and matches the front of the unit.

[@DJ-3551-1]

that looks incredible, and thanks for the shoutout guys.

[@UTVDIRT]

No problem Derek. Thank you!

[@RoadhogRNA]

Nice job I agree it definitely finishes the back of your Polaris!!!

[@UTVDIRT]

Thank you!

[@jacobaakre6726]

How sturdy is the rack? Wondering if I could mount a GPS receiver to the top center so it sits just above the roof for mapping fields. I don’t want it to sit and rattle.

[@UTVDIRT]

The rack is built really well and does not rattle at all. I wouldn't hesitate to mount anything to the rack.

[@wdy8425]

Did the rack rattle a bunch when u guys were out riding it ?? Been thinking of ordering 1

[@UTVDIRT]

No it did not rattle and secures really nice to the bed.

[@matulala2000]

Have you found various ways to mount different items to it such as tools or guns? Thanks for sharing.

[@UTVDIRT]

I justed used little ratchet straps. Works great. Thanks for watching!

[@kevinlangmeyer1952]

I have the headache rack, but also have the issue with the lights being in the way! Were did you get the brackets for your lights?

[@UTVDIRT]

I got them off of Amazon. Check out the link. Rear Pillar Roll Cage Bar LED Light Pod Mounting Brackets Fits 2013-2019 Polaris Ranger Full Size www.amazon.com/dp/B079JVSKL3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_7T-ADbJNWKQXJ

[@kevinlangmeyer1952]

I do have the hard doors that makes a difference too! You did inspire me to get it done today! Not completely happy with it, but at least I got the rack put on and usable! Have had it since spring! 😆

[@UTVDIRT]

Nice! Glad I could help.

[@frangeech]

@@kevinlangmeyer1952 I'm on the fence with getting one too, why aren't you completely happy with it?

[@derekbrock1129]

I just bought my first Ranger (2019 Crew XP 1000 20th Anniversary Edition) and I am really enjoying your videos. I have already ordered several upgrades you have. What part of Ohio? I am in Lexington KY.

[@UTVDIRT]

Nice! I live in Northeast Ohio Canfield. Glad you are enjoying the videos!

[@deltabravo1257]

Amazon link doesn't let us purchase this anymore.

[@jameshall1691]

Why did you choose this headache rack vs the one with the winches

[@UTVDIRT]

They didn't offer it at the time I purchased this rack.

[@jameshall1691]

@UTV DIRT oh I see ya I ordered one for mine

[@UTVDIRT]

@@jameshall1691 Nice! I probably would of done the same.

[@nobohobos23]

Will side cargo cage fit when you install the headache rack for a complete covering on 3 sides of the bed

[@UTVDIRT]

Headache rack takes up two holes on the side of the bed. I am not sure how many holes you need for the side cargo cage.

[@robertpage2927]

What are lights on your ride have not seen them

[@UTVDIRT]

If you are talking about the rear lights by the headache rack they are called Desen back up Lights. I did a install video on them a while back.

[@michaelosborne7274]

The only one I can find online is for a 500/570 ranger? I have a 1000xp crew. Just curious if it would still fit or if you knew. Thanks

[@UTVDIRT]

I bought it off of Amazon. I put a link in the description of the video. It should fit.

[@brianmiller7224]

Looks good might have to go get on now !!!

[@UTVDIRT]

Nice! It does change the look of the Ranger.

[@lakeywilder7144]

Good Sunday morning my friends

[@UTVDIRT]

Good morning Lakey!

[@lakeywilder7144]

Looks great!!!!

[@lakeywilder7144]

Fuel pump bad on mine after going in shop weak pressure only 418 miles on my Ranger sadness never had a problem out of my 14 570 ranger

[@UTVDIRT]

That sucks still under warranty?

[@lakeywilder7144]

UTV DIRT no sir

[@jean-francoisfortier8727]

where did you buy your brackets for the led lights?

[@UTVDIRT]

They came with the light kit. I got them off of Amazon.

[@kennethknapp1326]

Do you have the name & part# to the led pod lights and brackets you used on your unit. I’d like to install a set on my machine as well. And do u have the name & part# to the led back up light u installed under the bed.

[@UTVDIRT]

@@kennethknapp1326 I did install videos on the rear pod lights and the back up light. They have links to the parts in the description of the video.

[@kennethknapp1326]

Ok. I’ll try and find your video then. Thanks

[@UTVDIRT]

@@kennethknapp1326 If you go to my channel go under the video tab and will see all the videos. The pods are dasen brand and got them off of Amazon. The LED backup light I got of of Ebay. No link for that one but just type polaris backup light in the search bar and it should show up on ebay.

[@robertdrum300]

Where you get head ache rack at

[@UTVDIRT]

There is a link in the description of this video for the headache rack.

[@joeyhigginbotham8638]

@UTV Dirt I really like dat headache rack, it’s makes Zeus look even more beastly. I wonder if it would fit my 2019 Northstar 1000 ? I need dat when my wife uses it to pick up branches, and big pieces of tree limbs, she’s going to eventually break the back glass lol 😂. She kinda just throws stuff in the bed! Awesome video, keep um coming yall!!!

[@UTVDIRT]

Thanks Joey! It should fit your Northstar and will definitely give you more protection.

[@joeyhigginbotham8638]

Your very welcome, and thank you, it needs the protection lol

[@mikerichard-FOPA3]

I can’t use one, I have a Polaris Tonneau cover.

[@UTVDIRT]

I had to make a choice between the tonneau cover and the headache rack. I went with the rack because I wanted protection for the rear glass and I like the look of the rack too. I wish Polaris could of came up with a way to use both cause I like the cover too. Thanks for watching!
