2003 Sportsman HO Fluids

Did a quick search but wanted to confirm as I’m a Polaris newby lol

Instead of using the specific Polaris branded fluids I can use:

Front Diff-Synthetic ATF or J20c hydro fluid

Trans-Synthetic or reg 5w/20 motor oil

What about the hubs??? Haven’t found that one

350/250 rear end driveability

I’m just wondering if anyone that has installed a 350/250 rear end onto a 300 can comment on some questions.
I’m wondering how the driveability of the machine is? Is there any issue at higger speeds or any bad vibrations? I know why guys are doing this but is it necessary for a atv that won’t be used as a mud machine/water crossing bike? I’d like to do the mod as I already picked up the rear end but I see very minimal mud and water and ride a lot of logging road and similar style trails.

Thanks

Will dealer switch out my tires?

So I pick up my new quad in two weeks and looking at you guys’ I want to put some beef on those rims. What are the odds of getting the dealer to switch them out for me without a whole lot of up-sell? Also what recommendations with the factory rims? I will be plowing snow a lot.. Thanks!

Towed camping/work trailer recommendations

Looking for a small trailer to tow behind my 570. I will be doing a lot of work in the woods and on my property but nothing too extreme off of main trails. Not sure if I need to shy away from the plastic trailers and stick with steel or not. I’ve always avoided plastic wheelbarrows and I’m using this thing for the same reason so not sure. I’m not looking to spend $1000 either. I’m looking at the YuTrax X4 as a start and would love some suggestions.
