" How much lower on the cage" That is the best question i have heard yet. When riding it feels like there is two feet above my head and im 5' 10" . Plus it catches all kinds of trees, branches, thorn bushes .... I have to get these, so i can lower my cage !!!

Without lower seat bases we lowered my cage 4 inches. I have a 4 seat cage and this leaves plenty of headroom in the rear for passengers. So with these bases you could probably go 6 inches at least if you weren't putting people in the back.

I have the lowered seat bases from SDR and my cage is 5 inches shorter than stock. I'm 6' and there is plenty of room.

Default How Low can ya go

Well I'm now sitting LOW.. Put my seat lowering plates in today from UTV Crap... They do make a noticeable difference in seat hight. I think they moved the seats back about 1/2inch as well. Could just look that way because they are lower.. Fit and finish was good.. I think they gave me like 4 or 5 extra HP as well

Question. Is this based on the stock seat height from the oem floor or, a way to lower the after market seat . like if i buy a set of seats for say 800 bucks, then buy these plates, will i be three inches lower than i was with the stock seats, if so which seats do i need to buy, and can i return them if they are not three inches lower from the floor with out paying shipping,again. I am saying floor because of different lifts , tires etc... i
like the idea but just want to make sure before i blow a grand to end up at the same seat height that i am now. Going in circles is good, if your doing a doughnut !!

im still waiting for my seat order to come in but yes the ideal is to lower your ass sitting in the seat 3"

and yes if my seats and bases are not 3" lower when I say they are 3" lower you can send them back and Ill pay the shipping




1.230" just in the bases

I will give you one good reason why an explanation was worth its weight in gold. I have some friends, both college grads with good jobs, this past week pulling a trailer home to get away from the CA fires. Anyway, since I have a broken kneecap my wife had gone and was pulling the trailer with the help of this couple who do own a Rhino. Anyway there was a flat on the trailer and neither of the two knew how to change a tire, my wife had to do it. Do you really think that they could understand the benifit of a lower seat on their Rhino? With the explanation you might even sell them a set and as per your explanation, help your finantial situation.
