Good to have you here. What kind of riding do you do? I know there is a lot of mud riding down your way.
Welcome. What projects are you working on?

I am looking for places and clubs to go riding with.
Welcome. What projects are you working on?
I am installing a bar on the back so i can install 5 point restraint harness's, adding cutouts to the seats for the harness to stay put, Changing the fan with an All Balls fan from High-Lifter, and about to install a 6" lift as soon as i can get the wife to say yes! LOL

Hi Kevin
Welcome to the forum. there's a lot of info on here so you can learn what to do or how to do it, or just get ideas for your T4. There are many talented and knowledgeable people on here ( I'm fairly new, I've had mine for almost a year now) And I have done quite a few things to mine since I got it, because of what I have read on here.
are you thinking of getting portals to lift it? or something else? if your wondering what size tires you can put on, SuperATV has a great tire size chart for various lift kits on here


I'm in Missouri, so I can't help you with clubs or where to ride in your area.
You're going to really like what these things can do, they are amazing at trail riding and hill climbing. Keep us posted on your projects and I hope you post pic's for us to see

Dumb question. What are portals? I thought you had to do a lift by changing a arms and stuff. I just replaced my stock radiator fan with an all balls fan last night. I am going to put inserts in the seats so I can install my 5 point harness's. I have a duel battery setup coming today. So going to be busy this weekend.
Not a dumb question, I wondered the same thing last year. they are 1 way to lift these, they come in 4", 6", 8" sizes. I'll put a link so you can see them. basically your axle goes into the top of them and then your wheel bolts to the bottom to get the lift at the wheel and they are geared so you don't have to mess with a new clutch when using them and big tires. theyre a little pricey but work great.

If you want to put bigger tires on, you will need to get offset a arms to get the clearance needed for the bigger tires with about any type of lift. SuperATV and Hi-Lifter are 2 good companies that make them. here is another link on a post on the forum from superATV about what you need to get the tire size you want

Also, If your putting the 2nd battery under the drivers seat, I found it way easier to do by removing the plastic panel under drivers door. the battery I put in wouldn't fit through the top of hole under seat, and i even cut some plastic out to make room to drop it down. removing that side panel also made it easier to bolt down the marine battery box I used to keep battery in, in case I get in deeper ( than expected) water.

Thank you. Yeah I have a marine battery box as well. I don't expect to go swimming but you never know.
