    for your velcro door problem...I bought a new roll of high quality velcro and put new where the old was on the tube frame. it works amazing compared to the stock. I left the velcro on the door piece itself. Great Video

      Thanks. Good tip. I’ll try new Velcro.
      Glad you liked it.

    We have a 2021 General XP4 1000. Another great perk of a General and RZR is cheaper insurance. It’s considered a work Utv while the rzr is a sport utv.

    • @OurLifeInTrees
      @OurLifeInTrees  Před 2 měsíci

      That’s very true! My insurance really did go down with the General. Neither are very cheap though because I have them street legal. Sigh….

    Thank you for this very informative video. I purchased one and pick it up this weekend. We want to use ours for some overlanding trips. What trailer do you pull behind yours?

      @OurLifeInTrees  Před měsícem

      Awesome! Congrats.
      Check out a few pictures of my little utility trailer in this video around 21:45. Nothing fancy. Just more space for hauling stuff around the property.

    Look into the Only Generals roof peak filler, I see yours is warped like most end up, it will fix that right up, it also stops any wind from coming in there that can cause a whistle.

    Did you use a plug & play wiring harness with the Rigidhorse light bar?

    • @OurLifeInTrees
      @OurLifeInTrees  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I used the Auxbeam switch panel. I ran the light bar to the 30amp fuse. Made wiring it all super easy. Unfortunately, they aren’t cheap.
