| We made a pretty epic and hardcore ride recently. Unfortunately, I was rear-ended by a Polaris Ranger 900. It crashed up my bed pretty good. The pic doesn't look too bad, and I didn't think it was too bad at first. But when I cleaned it up I was able to better see the damage. The inner steel bed is bent in by the light. It is also all bowed up in the floor of the bed. The tailgate is cracked real bad. The LED taillight is cracked on the side. And, my left bed panel is cracked. The guy who hit me is a good guy, it was just an honest accident. I was glad nobody was hurt. He hit me so hard it jarred me. We are talking about how to best get me all fixed up. | |

| I think the latter, fucted, lol. If if was just that corner like I thought when we were out on the trail I thought we could "massage" it back into place. But then I started seeing how the floor of the bed was all crooked and bowed up in the middle. | |

| It's just one of those things. I'm a pretty laid back guy and wasn't ready to start swinging punches. But I am bummed. I try to keep my stuff pretty nice and now it looks all beat up and ragged out. That Ranger was like a Mac truck slamming into me. Those wheelers are pretty big. The Rhino is more svelte and cuts back through the woods much easier. I was stopped waiting on another wheeler to make it through a muddy hole, the Ranger had just made it though, and I suppose he just wasn't paying attention. BAM! | |

| I pulled the bed off my Rhino to begin the repair process. I thought you would get a kick out of seeing my Rhino with no bed. It looks crazy! A sharp eye will also notice the 3" lift is gone. | |

| Yeah I did that before the 734bbk and I was impressed with how much more torque it felt like it had I can only imagine now with 734bbk would be lots of fun. | |

| That sucks, glad you didn't get hurt. On our thrid or fourth ride, my son rear ended me. Broke a piece of tailgate hinge on the Rhino. Smashed the front rack up pretty bad on the Kodiak. Jarred the heck out of me. I was just turning sideways to talk to the wife when he hit me. We came out of the woods and were getting ready to cross the road and saw the local law enforcement. I slammed on the brakes and my boy came around the turn and saw the cop, not me. My neck hurt for a few days. A few beers and some stretching and it was fine. Anyway, how do you like those tires? My buddy just put those on his Razr 800 and I was thinking about getting them also. | |
