How can i get the front wheels off on my 2X4 rancher?

 

I use a socket wrench, just make sure you get the correct socket head, its in Millimeters. Then just take off the 4 lug nuts and presto!

 

haha
i gueass i didnt really make my self clear i am talking about performance upgrades.

 

You will need a 17mm socket wrench. You supply the elbow grease.

 

HondaHolics, do you mean how to get the front wheels off of the ground or just "off". One is fairly self-explaining while the other could be a bit more diffifcult.
These ES machines don't have a "neutral" in between gears like the manual shifters do. It doesn't appear to be possible to hold the tranny in the "neutral" position between 1st and 2nd gears like you could on a 300FW or a Rancher with a footshift. For this reason the Rancher ES models are going to have a lot harder time getting the front wheels off of the ground.

 

I had a friend who bought a BRAND NEW rancher a week ago, was riding yesterday when he landed going over a small jump, the battery box busted through the battery box and the back shock busted and had no pressure, has anyone had any similar probs??

the ES ranchers are EaSy to wheelie. they have plenty of power to do it. you just hafta time it right.

phalnx has a videa on his webpage of his rancher with 26" blackwaters doin a wheelie.

1. get moving in first gear.
2. when you upshift into second, have you but on the back rack and nail the throttle while pulling on the handlebars.
3. wear your helmet. you will probly flip backwards a couple time b-4 you find the balance point
good luck and b-safe

Cartman,

I haven't done the wheelie thing yet. Next time I ride I'll give it a try

 

yeh i was talking about doing a wheelie it is kinda hard because i only weigh 100 pounds but i can do it if someone is doubling with me
i also want to get maximum power out of my rancher what should i do I was thinking k&n filter silencer (if they make one for the rancher yet) and then re jett the carb

i am new to 4-wheeling so any advice would be appreciated
