thanks for the input. I might have to try that. I think I'll first make sure I trim any of the hanging plastic off. Then I'll adjust the springs (if they are already on their lowest point). If that's not enough, I may try just the one 2x6 I had before under the ramp where the tires drive up. If...

Thanks for the input. I just saw some discussion across the internet today about adjusting the stiffness of the springs. I may try that first. 2x6s under the ramp didn't help. I didn't think about putting them up on the deck. I did think about trying 2x4s under the ramp. I will hopefully have...

I will need tires as some point in the near future...another cost I don't have money for, but might try to go slightly bigger than stock just to help with clearance while loading and unloading. I'm currently scraping on the back edge of the trailer. I've been researching 2" lift brackets, but...

Definitely want those. I have a half windshield that came on it. I'd like a folding one. Roof would be awesome. Out of my budget, so I'm researching DIY options now. by brother has a 2018 HD8 max. He made one out of black ABS plastic and u-bolted it on. 

I have a 2019 HD8 max (xt?)...its the base model 2 row machine. I had to put my leaf springs of my trailer on top of the axle to get enough clearance for it to back up my driveway...now I have clearance issues loading and unloading the machine. It scrapes on the back edge of the trailer. It is...

I've seen people talk about this and say that one that is needed is 1" of 1/4 fuel line. I've reached out to the people that posted about the tubing to find out what it is for. I haven't heard back. Any ideas?

I'm having a hard time finding those parts. Where did you order them from?

Hey guys. Just picked up a 2019 Defender Max HD8. It came from a rental place selling off machines at the end of the season. Needs some TLC and some mods. Pretty basic. Been looking at DIY roof options as I don't have the money to spend on the nice stuff. Just wondering what other mods are...

also curious if you have this still

what was the rough cost for materials?

Thanks so much. With nothing to reference as a good example I was pretty worried. I want to learn this machine as I have others in the past. I appreciate the help 

Hi guys...new defender owner here. Not of a new defender, but the defender is new to me. Just picked the machine up from a rental place selling off machines at the end of the season. My brother bought one from them a couple years ago and had a great experience so i decided to give it a try. So...
