Tires for rocky trails?

I have a 2016 Trail Fox 50". The stock tires are 26x8x12 front. 26x9x12 rear
Polaris Xtreme Tire (PXT).
I have rocky trails & not much money.
Can a 26x9x12 be used on the front? Better for rocks? Could cary a spare tire, too.

Other suggestions?? Many Thanks!

Grease fitting design flaw on front a-arm.

I just found a broken grease fitting on the left a-arm of my 2015 900. It appears that the hole for this fitting was tapped in the wrong place. This one was on the back side (about 2 o’clock down from top center) and therefore when the wheel lifted the grease fitting made contact with the frame and broke off. All other fittings are located top center. Has anyone else had this problem or was mine just a bad day on the manufacturing line?

Timing chain rattle

I have right around 20 hours on my 2015 trail and I am getting (I think) a timing chain rattle right on start up for about 10 seconds and then everytime I rev it, it will rattle for a few seconds until the engine comes up to operating temperature. It seems to be getting worse. After the engine comes to operating temperature it seems like it stops. I started hearing right after I would let go of the key switch at about 15 hours. I was thinking the starter was staying engaged. But now it’s on cold starts and when revving. I am going to bring it to the dealer tomorrow morning but I wanted to see if any one else had that kind of trouble with their 900.

Kfi winch install issues

I tried to search and couldn’t find anything, I have the Kfi 3500 winch installed, followed the directions and wiring diagram. I have no power to the winch, I have the 12v constant, ground and accessory hooked up to the accessory ports under the hood. I tested the ports under the hood and have no power there. Is there something that needs hooked up under the hood before use? Do you guys just run straight from the battery? This has been a pita.
