Default Bought a '05 Rancher(pics)..

New here but have gotten a lot of info on this site on purchasing a utility ATV for my wife. It seems the Rancher was a popular choice so i found a low mile '05 350 4x4 at a pretty good deal. I just put on some ITP 7's and Pirelli Mudwisers(26x12x12 and 26x10x12) and the 2" lift is going on tomorrow. It seems to pull them great! She loves it so far!Name:  househondatrailer006.jpg

It looks great! Very clean. I have thought about putting 26's on my 420, but I don't want to lose any power (even though I don't ride aggressivley.) What type of riding are you planning on doing?

Also, your property looks beautiful. Where are you located?

One other thing...what type of bag is that, and does it have a built in cooler? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Thanks! We just do a little Trail riding and some light mud. We climbed a couple of pretty good hills with it yesterday and it did GREAT. Honestly I didnt feel any loss going to the bigger tires but I havent really been in anything deep yet either.
The bag is stearns mad dog, it came with the it and it does have a built in cooler.
Thanks again.We are in Lexington, S.C. on few acres that are pretty good for riding!

Wow! I bet that thing looks mean!You have any pics of it? I almost bought the outlaws but I was scared it wouldnt turn them in the mud! My 26" Pirellis are CLOSE to the rear plastic, gonna try and put my 2" lift on this weekend.
