Thanks guys!

 

is the "rhino liner' real ruff? would it be hard on smooth item's straped on the rack?

 

Its got a ruff texture to it.what kind of smooth items are you talking about?

 

Just got done putting some truck bed coating on my back rack and it looks awsome. It gives it a real nice texture to it. I will put it on tomorrow and take some pics if anyone is interested let me know and I will send you one.

 

I would like to see a pic of the racks with the coating on it. Take a pic of your nerf bars from the bottom if you can, also please ....SLVRBullet67@aol.com

 

10-4 I will send it to you tomorrow.

 

hey SPORTSMAN70003 what do you have for the reverse override mod... how'd u do it.

 

Polaris has incorporated a safety feature on all their 4wd models. This feature, which is operational all the time when reverse is selected, will limited engine power and cut out the front wheel drive unless you push the "override" button.

One of the main reasons you would want to do this mod is because when you get stuck and the only way out is reverse, it is impossible to pull the ATV backwards while applying throttle AND pushing the override button. It is also very helpfull when you use your ATV to plow and need 4wd every time you back up with the weight of the plow hanging off the front.

This mod will give you 4wd and full power when in reverse without having to push the override button. This is for all Polaris Sportsman models with the new style speedo (2003) and Sp700, 02. Continue down below for pre 03 model instructions.

The problem with the new style, is that the function button for the speedo is combined with the override button and it is not as straight forward as the old style speedo. Doing it this way everything works as it should exactly the way it did before the mod.

The nicest thing about this mod is that you do not need to cut any wires or drill any holes.

You will need to purchase a standard 4 pin, 12v relay, 4 pieces of 16 gauge wire about 8" long, 4 female crimp on spade connectors(for connection of wires to relay), and 4 wire splice connectors.(they are usually blue and you simply insert the wires and squeeze with pliers, then fold back the protective locking cover)

Open the pod and locate the wiring harness coming from the speedo.

Relay terminal #30 connect to Polaris brown wire
Relay terminal #87 connect to Polaris wire gray/orange
Relay terminal #86 connect to Polaris wire red/white
Relay terminal #85 connect to Polaris wire purple.

Use dielectric grease at all electrical connections to prevent corrosion in the long run or even better, liquid tape.

To test, simply put it in reverse with the engine running, if the speedo flases the word "SLOW" (just like it did before the mod, when you pressed the override button) you did everything correct. Enjoy

Pre 2003 and almost all models that do NOT have the combined override/speedo function button.

Trace wires from the override button (gray/white & gray/orange) Cut the gray/orange and tape up both ends. Cut the gray/white and tape up the end which goes to the override button. Connect the other end of the gray/white to the red/white (ignition supplied 12v) Done deal

 

SPORTSMAN70003: When you created the custom nerf bars did you draw it and dimensioned the part. Could you let me know some of the measurements and material used.

I need to create some I am getting sick of fixing my footwell.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

just wanted to let everyone know that the reverse override kit sportsman70003 has listed works great, I installed the kit on my 04' 700 EFI this morning, the kit was simple to make. I soldered the wires where the wires connect from the relay pins to the pin connectors then used heat shrink tubing to cover the connections. the only thing unsure about the instructions is that the factory purple wire on my EFI was purple with a white stripe and not solid purple.
