A lot of the info on doors seemed dated so I started another…have to give Thumper Fab a huge 5 star rating. I looked at doors until I couldn’t stand looking further. Watched videos & reviews until blue in the face. And kept going back to the Thumper Fab product. Damn glad I did. Talk about fit and finish to a “T”. Top notch quality down to every washer. Now I will say the instructions could be better. But there’s a company video that helps the install process. Of course a second person would’ve been great to have but I pulled it off solo in just a few hours. Not counting making the trip to their facility in Marshall, Texas to pick em up. Didn’t want to take a chance on receiving damaged doors after waiting on em to be built. Just a couple hour drive for me so not a big deal. If ya don’t know the company, I would highly suggest to do some research on their products and see what they offer for the Defenders. Quite impressive outfit.

Is that a typo? Just 1000 miles on a 2019? Or is it suppose to be 10k miles?

It does pivot with the cargo bed. Would imagine all do, to be able to open and tilt. I did lose some of the tilting capability due to the bumper contacting the tires.

I went with the Super ATV version. Serves for what I needed. Wanted a step up to access cargo bed and hopefully add protection if rear ended or backing into something. Whatever you decide to go with however, replace the factory plastic cargo bed mounts with the aftermarket metal ones. It’s a guarantee that in the unfortunate mishap of backing into something or behind struck from behind, they will break and off goes the cargo bed.

2019 Defender HD10 xt…I added front forward control arms. Currently running 28x10x14 all around. Wanting to go up to a 30x10x14 and stay with factory wheels. Will this be a problem being the front wheels are 9” wide and the rear are 11” wide???

No Limit Wheels makes a steel replacement cargo bed mount for the Defender. I added a rear bumper and wanted some extra heft. The factory plastic version are a definite weak spot for the cargo bed. https://nolimitwheels.com/product/can-am-defender-bed-hinges/

No help with the seadoo nav retro. But I do run a tablet for GPS & Mapping. Just installed this kemimoto device holder for current setup. Had the tablet on a ram mount prior to but this is a cleaner install. kemimoto Electronic Device Holder with Storage Box, Phone Holder Tablet Mount Navigator Bracket, Dashboard Cargo Container, Compatible with Can am Defender (Max) HD5 HD8 HD10 https://a.co/d/8x8zsML

https://www.dynojet.com/power-vision-3-for-can-am-defender/ I have the Dynojet Power Vision 3 on my 2019 Defender hd10 xt. Most noticeable differences is the fact it runs cooler due to the fan temp change and the low speed lunge is no more. As far as doing burnouts from HP increase, not there. Never have known what my top speed is due to not being able to stand on the accelerator for too long, due to lack of straight aways. But I’d say when ya pin the pedal to the floor it’s breaking tires loose in dirt, gravel, etc.

Do you have a Bluetooth soundbar by chance? I do and have to keep my ‘19 Defender hd10 xt on a battery tender to prevent battery drainage.

Decided to go with the Dynojet PV3…came with tune already installed…simple plug & play setup…things I noticed immediately… radiator cooling fan comes on @ 199°…was well over the 200° mark factory setting…throttle response is better and the talked about “lunge” in the lower speeds is gone…cold starting is better…overall the engine just seems to run smoother…haven’t had an opportunity to open full throttle for top speed but no doubt it’ll be improved as well… There’s a lot going on behind the scene contributing to the new performance and I’m sure I’ll notice more as conditions arise. But initial impression is I’m glad I went this route and am experiencing the above improvements thus far.

Anyone install or do a tune to their Defender with one? Feedback if so.

Just finished a similar project. Map loaded for upcoming trip to Wolf Pen Gap in Mena, Arkansas.

Sure seems like the temp bars are higher than what I recall them normally operating at. Can’t swear to it. But they will go as high a 5 and the fan will knock em back to 3. I’ve noticed also that on the rear cargo bed the, what I think to be called, “deflector” doesn’t fit flush against the back wall. Like it is warped now possible due to the heat? Coolant in the fill bottle is within range so don’t think I’m losing any. Ideas??? Pic included is of the part I feel is taking some heat now.

I don’t have a lift on my ‘19 Defender hd10 XT so I stayed with the stock wheels and went to only a 28x10x14 all the way around. I did put 1.5” spacers on the rear only to move the tires out from under the bed. I went with System 3 xtr370 (8 ply) tires. Absolutely recommend them. Planet sxs had the best prices when I purchased. https://system3offroad.com/xtr370 https://planetsxs.com/products/system-3-off-road-xtr370-radial-tires?gclid=Cj0KCQiA4L2BBhCvARIsAO0SBda0uA6UaISILjTKyg-dtbtGC6hDBjPZ4wdfmM5N907729WoRap20rAaAtJVEALw_wcB
