Everyone always comes to this forum to get the answers they need without all the BS.

I believe that Wheelspin/Momentum the most important thing when climbing the soft stuff. With that being said, I would AIR Down your tires, use 4wd, use Hi gear and HAMMER the Go Fast Pedal. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Just try it out and have some fun.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

What do you have done to your rhino tpsyco, is it that transmission sheeve that makes it run 65 on top end.

I only have the Black Rhino CDI the K&N filter the carb rejeted and the exhaust end cap and the clutch shieve upgrade. and custom rims and mud light tires. At my currant state of tune I can go 56MPH in high and 45 MPH in low I could go up to 65MPH in high but I don't have enough HP to do that yet.
I got the stuff from Kelly at KMS # 602-442-4340 The clutch shieve is the best upgrade you could ever put on a rhino. $ 100.00 and kelly gives you an instructional video with it I installed mine in 2 HRS and I was taking my time after I was done I could pull 56MPH and I was probably running 3000rpm compared to stock I was running 4000 RPM and going 42 MPH

No you do not lose any low end grunt at all.
what the clutch shieve kit does is allows the primary drive pullies to come closer together witch results in the belt riding higher on the primary and lower on the secondary the results are a much higher top end just like changing your gearing on a bike but the bottom end is unchanged.

I have no problem climbing Test Hill on my 06LE. I have no mods, only 27" ITP Mud Light XTR's aired down a bit. I will run in 4wd high, but alot of duning can actually be done in 2wd. I err to the side of caution though and keep it in 4wd.

Have Fun
