Got a front bumper for my Sp500, but I don't see how to remove grill to start install...help...

PS - Merry Christmas!

 

Nevermind on the grill - If you pull hard enough it comes off. I do have to remove the upper retainer clips from each side of the radiator shroud. There must be a tool made for this. I thought I could install this easily, but if you don't have the right tools, it's tougher. Any one ever install a front bumper on a 2005 Sportsman 500?

 

Discovered my error - did not start drinking beer BEFORE I started a project. Go the thing on pretty easily after I tougged and pulled a little bit. There's something about putting too much stress on plastic that bothers me...

Happy, happy.....
Merry, Merry......

 

That works every time for me!!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Merry Christmas ..back at ya'

 

i just put a brush guard on 800 and had to fight to get the screen of as well. lol then had to rebend the brackets to fit. at least its on and looks good

 

Directions said to use a set of pre-drilled holes for the 600-700 or another set for the 400-500. The only way it would fit was ti use the wrong holes. Misprint or what? It's on. Time to pop another top.

 

well mine said the same thing about my 800,fits them all i guess.

 

ROFL....sometimes they make it where a little liquid influence helps alot!

 

When I got home last night after hunting, I noticed the front grill cover was missing. Odds are against finding it. Checked Polaris site for replacements parts but no luck. Where would you look for one?

PS - Apparently it takes more than pushing and hearing the click back in place..........
