On my 2007 Rancher 420 EFI, the plastic tank for the engine coolant is mounted under the back right fender, just above the tires and exposed for the world to see and toss rocks, sticks and stones at.. I'm not 100% how tough the plastic of the tank is so does anyone know IF there is some type of after market guard you can install on that part of the quad to offer some additional protection for coolant tank?

 

The tank location has never been a problem for me. You don't see any posts in here about them getting broken, so I don't think it has been a serious issue for anybody.....

It is just the overflow anyway. It's not like if it got broken, that your engine would run dry in the middle of a ride and burn up.

 

I think they are tougher than you would figure...

I'm not aware of any aftermarket guard, but I'm sure a person could make one, if it mattered.

Like ReconRanger said, it's only the overflow recovery tank, so it's not like it would leave you stranded if it broke.
