I just put the heavy duty bumper on my 2018 Polaris. Watching this video made it so much easier. The instructions were, to say the least, not very clear and the diagrams were blurry. Thanks a bunch for making this video.
I've put this brush guard on as well as Polaris grip heaters, auto stop winch control and rack extenders. Each of those came with instructions that were obtuse to say the least. Not that they were wrong per se just not exactly clear either. You did a real nice job explaining this. Certainly will help people that may have questions on this install. Excellent!
Thanks man I really appreciate the comment. The grainy black and white pictures on the instructions are what made me decide to put this up. This way even if you're not mechanically inclined you can still save yourself some money. Keep an eye on my channel I'll be posting more install videos. Next on the list is front A-arm guards.
You don’t need to take off the plastic pins on the hinge. The new bolts are not 3/8. Try 9mm That little connection is NOT for the winch. It’s for Polaris diagnostics tool called Digital Wrench.
Nice video, This install will work on a 2017 sportsman, The step I think you do not have to do is remove the hinge pins just loosen the bolts and slide the hinge out from under the bolts.
not a big fan of these new bumpers...the 2014 bumper was waayyyy nicer...if i could get the 2014 for my bike i would, but it doesnt allow the cargo to open apparently. I just hate how the 2015 bumper only covers the top half of the bike, while the other use to go right down to the frame...still a great install vid!
I agree completely. I was very disappointed to see how little of the front of the bike was covered. It looks like when it was designed it was to look pretty instead of do the job of protecting the front. Thank you for the comment. Much appreciated.
Mark Paez Jr I'm not entirely sure about Amazon's kit. As long as it is the factory Polaris kit it should. I ordered mine directly from the Polaris dealer. Thanks

Marty Schmidt I just pinched the plastic ends and slid them out
Does anyone know what the screw that is on the cable that holds the hood on is called
Well done vid
Might be a dumb question but same application for the 2017?
