Just took delivery on Friday of a beautiful new red Defender HD8 XT. Had fun over the weekend with it, but yesterday after a heavy rain, I noticed that the electrical system stayed on after the ignition was turned off and the key removed. The tail lights began flashing and the electrical system made a clicking noise in time with the tail lights.
I turned the machine off and on a few times and drove it and it continued to repeat the same behaviour. I disconnected the battery overnight and just tried it this morning and it was back to normal with the everything shutting down properly after removing the key.
Have the following for sale off a 95 TRX300FW. Make offers. Located in South MS.
1)Complete (I believe) front diff. Turns smooth, CVs feel ok but need boots. Dirt included free!
2) Transfer case..turns smooth. Not exactly sure what year it is from.
3) Front control arms, knuckles, brake plates, drums. Ball joints will need replacing, wheel bearings are pretty much not there, and of course brake components are shot or long gone. Control arms didn’t appear bent, they have cv guards on them. I’ll dig them out and get a pic or two of them if someone is interested.
4) Misc stuff..front (transfer case to front diff) driveshaft, and whatever else 4×4 I have laying around.
Make me some offers..need to get this stuff out of the way and fund my TRX300 project..
was thinking of buying an RV next year something small that will do ok in parks and stuff
so I was wondering if anyone goes to events or anything I should look out for next year – something that allows me to park my rv and spend the night to ride the next day
This is prolly a dumb question but on a 1995 big bear 350 4×4, the rear differential ring nuts are super tight. To avoid fighting myself, what direction do they come off? Do I turn up towards front of 4 wheeler, or push down towards rear of 4 wheeler?
i wasnt sure where to post this, so admin delete it if needed

I started out looking at a Can-Am XMR 1000r.
Then I decided that i just couldn’t afford 16K for a 4 wheeler. So i played around with the builds and what not on the Can-Am site, and came to the conclusion that I was going to go with a Can-Am 570 XT. 48 Horsepower V-Twin, with Power steering, winch, front and rear bumpers. Beautiful machine, but Can-Am dropped their free 5 year warranty, and their prices are just HIGH compared to others. I realize that you get what you pay for, but I am just not looking to spend 10K if I don’t have to.
Polaris offered these 1000 dollar rebates on Sportsman 450/570 models and I got looking at their site… I really like the Sportsman 850. What a sweet ride. And with their rebates right now the 850 Base model is $8499. After rebate $7,699.00 Which is a GREAT price for an 850cc Big Bore ATV. Surely would love the 1000, but again, it’s over the 10K price tag.
The real deal right now is on the 570.
Base Model = 6599 after rebate 5599 (Now that is a great price on a nice ATV).
Even the 570 EPS is 7499, after rebate… 6499 6499 for a sweet bike with Power Steering, selectable 2×4 / AWD.
I did call a Kawasaki dealer… He says he can get me into a Prarie 750 V-Twin WITH power steering for 7599 add freight and set up which is 195 + 65 and im still at 7860… 7860 fora 750 VTwin with Power steering…
So this is my dillemma… it’s like one price leads right into the other…. and im stuck at "Just buy the biggest most expensive one… or don’t buy any" The way the prices work out, I can’t help but feel like i’ll have buyers remorse once I get the thing home… THe first time something happens and im in a situation without enough power i’ll be kicking myself saying "Shoulda just went with the big Can Am you wanted in the first place"
So anyone else find themselves in this situation? Can anyone chime in with any words of encouragement or any past experiences going one way or the other?

Can anyone help me? I’ve hear of people replacing the stock 300 cam and chains with big red cam and chains. Is this possible and if so does it matter what year model big red the parts have to be for it to fit in the 300?
