Which year? How long have you owned it? Any issues? Love hearing of others in the 1k club... 😉 stretching out the "secret hand shake "

I'll have it a year in May, 2019 HD 10 Cab XT. The only issues were the windshield gasket was deformed and not sealing and Pass. window switch not working.

I can't say a bad word about it at this point, just the best all-round machine I've ever owned!  

1120 miles to date on the HD 10 full cab XT, Just removed the tracks, greased suspension, cleaned out drive belt sheaves, changed out drive belt(Just because I was in there), changed oil and installed the wheels back on after a good cleaning.

Ready for the season.

installing apachie 360 LT tracks, what is GALH and DRRH on front. arrows point forward

Instructions are super vague.  Is there other options?  Adjustments also super vague

Sandy,

I just looked over the instructions from when I installed the LT 360's on my 19 XT 10 cab and can't find either of those references in them. Point out the page and i'll see if  I can help.

These were way ez'er to install than on my old Commander, which were a HUGE PIA. Those instructions just sucked, I ended up just getting it done by trial and error.

The 19's don't look like that. No 12volt power post up in mine.

Just an FYI for you all using cable or Syn. rope, change out those bolts on the side fairway rollers with Button head bolts. What happens is as you push on a pile, the rope will twist without weight on it and catch on the bolt head. Which will cut and break the rope just when you need it most. ......Don't ask how I know!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I got the Apache LT tracks installed this morning on the HD10, also mounted the plow to check clearances. I will need to install cylinder stops on the angle cylinders and modify the plow dolly. It should be a blast running this beast this winter.

Think Snow!

That sucks, I had to wait for Western to release the mount setup for my 19" before I could buy it, but it fits and works well.

What tires are on your machine? may look  at something like that when I need to replace.

 

Nice, How many Sq Ft so far and the total amount and how thick is the material?

Yea, that's not right. Take it back to the Stealer, that's on them.

Get a Floor jack at least 1.5ton lift cap. if you need more height just add a block or two. Harbor Freight and NAPA run sales all the time. You can find them under $100 buck around this time of the year.

Never trust a bottle jack to work on an UTV just not stabile enough.

If you have the BRP part# look up the installation instructions here, https://instructions.brp.com/e-instruction.html#tab=1

Tie in at the Cig. lighter outlet on the dash, unless your using the lighter to light up something.

 I put my 8" LED bar tied into that with no issues even with the LED Amber Strobe plugged in for plowing. The 8" draws less than 5amp max.

That's why I went to a full hyd set up on mine. Just tip replace the 2 bolts on the new fairlead that hold in the side rollers with Button head bolts. what happened to my old one was the rope would loop and get caught on the bolt head when the plow would rise up on a pile and fall back down as soon as I backed up.

Happed to me during the 1st ride, Battery terminals were lose. no issues since  

AHHU, just open up your socket set and find the one that fits. If you don't have a set that goes that big buy one you'll need it in the future.

Your diagnosis plug is out of it's holder. It go's in next to the brake  cylinders. Try not to get wet.

Out in 19 XT Cab today and used the heater most of the ride.

Thanks, can't wait to get tracks on an see what its going to look like. Just ordered the mounting kit for them from BRP. It's going to be a blast this winter,

Looks good!     Do you have any pictures of the mount setup?

The base plate is simple 8 bolts, only need to drill 2 -3/8" in front. The main mount, where the 2 clevis pins are is where the plow clips into. It locks into the mount via a locking pin set

Overall well engineered and thought out design. Although running the electrical from the front back into the battery was a pain , but that's on BRP not Western.

 

Got the Plow installed. Now just waiting for snow

 I happened to find the Heater Valve today while running the wiring for the new plow.  You'll need to take out 3 Torx bolts from the bottom of heater section ( where the filters are) the valve is behind that plastic filter housing.

We average about 260 inch's a year, with a good Lake Effect Event we could see 3 to 5 feet depending on how the wind is blowing over a day or two. Yea we get some snow.  Also have a Kubota B3200 with a 60" front  mounted snow blower to move the big stuff  

We get some SERIOUS snow up this way.

I had the Alpine Flex on my old commander SXS and in three years went thru 2 cables  and 2 Syn. Ropes. never again.

I just ordered  6ft Westeren Impact fully Hyd. with the straight blade , time will tell I guess.
