RZR S Rear seats finally done!

First off, If your a crazy driver, drives fast, jumps your rzr, does donuts or climbs steep hills, this seat setup is not for you. It is not meant to be dune safe by no means. I’m 43 and drive on flat land down here in Louisiana. I use it for hunting, riding in my back yard, and driving around town on city streets. I will NEVER go any faster than 15-20 mph with my kids behind it, which is the speed of a golf cart. The first picture I posted is of other UTV’s that have rear seats that have no roll over protection. Obviously they are used for hunters and driving very slow which is what I will be doing. As always, I try to make everything I do look factory and I think it came out pretty good. Here is pictures and descriptions of what I did.

Examples of rear seats on hunting utv’s.

So wanting to spend the least I could on this project, I started thinking on making a bench seat until I noticed these in my mancave.

I already had a flat surface with the rear rack I made earlier.

After grinding the welds off the chairs and removing the legs, I made a frame to mount the two chairs.

Not liking the little opening on the top of the chairs, I went buy an aluminum cattle Xing sign at the store to use for sheet metal. I cut one piece for each chair, painted them black & put a RZR decal on each one.

Here is the painted frame with the seats. Notice the "RZR" decals.

I dropped the seat belts to the hole right underneath where they came installed so I could use that top hole. I made two RZR S type bars to extend to the back and attached to the back of my rack. This is to provide some side protection or to hold on to.

I also made a step with a 6" rizer/drop hitch so the kids can get up here easier.

So here is the final product. The only thing I’m waiting on is a cushion I’m having made that fits in front of both seats. Kinda where the back part of the legs will fall on the rack. It will kinda extend the seating area because my rack was kinda deep. I also installed seatbelts but you may not see them.

Do you think they look ok? I made them for cheap and the kids sure love the comfort instead of sitting on the rack! I’m in a wheelchair so this project took me three times the time you could do it. LOL

rear stabitizer tube ?

sorry ,i am postong this basically again . I tried editting the title line on the other post be couldn’t . so here i go again
i I have a 2009 800s . when looking from the rear the top of both tires lean towards the center , but the passenger side has a lot more lean , like maybe double. I measured the distance from the ground to the top of the rim , not the tire , and the driver side is 3/8" lower. The whole machine tilts with the drivers side lower. I am confused.. I swapped the rear tires from side to side , made only a little difference . I have new Racer Tech springs in it , was the same before the new ones .
I just looked at the rear stabilizer tube , it appears to be twisted where one end points straight out and the other end points upwards. Anybody seen this and if so did you replace the bar ?
Thank You
Hal
