On mine, the squeak is definitely coming from the sway bar bushings. I took them off and cleaned out the grease channels in them - that worked for about 2 rides. Not sure if aftermarket bushings address this.
This is what I wanted to see. I take my rzr hunting and the ride down the section line and through the fields / hill trails is so stiff. Its not about fast cornering for me, its about ride comfort and I think you convinced me.
This was the single best ride improvement I did. It also makes it more stable at low speed because the back end can flex vs pushing the front end around.
I have been batting around the idea of removing mine on my XP 1000 and I think this video made me decide to do it. We ride mostly in mud and semi rough trails where the highest speed we ever really see is 25MPH (normally 10MPH or less) I have also been hearing a clunking noise when going over small bumps and a lot of people say the sway bar getting worn causes that so hopefully this solves my issue and gives me that extra wheel travel . Thanks for a great video
It's worth a try anyway! You can just disconnect one side and see how you like it and I also think there are quick disconnects for the XPs. Thanks for watching!
What are the two switches are those on the right side of your dash? Just picked up 2012 just like yours. These things have jump up in price a lot here in Texas. I didn’t get a good deal like you got 😞
Huge difference, mine has front and rear sway bars. My wife would get too nervous if i remove them. I used to run my jeep TJ with 4" lift with no sway bars full time, you get used to the body roll
The difference is amazing and the body roll was not that bad really. Can not believe the ride improvement. There is a moment in the before shot driving down the rocky road that I hit a small rock with the right tire and the left one comes off the ground! Might as well have a swing arm rear end!
Love those doors! I've got a 19 Ranger Crew highlifter with a lift and 6" portals. My swaybar is rubbing on the rear springs. Thinking of removing it and either lengthening it or just leaving it off. A little worried because I sit so high. Any thoughts?
Thanks! Sounds like with a rig like that you aren't carving turns at speed. I would just give it a shot and if it's too tippy put it back on. I bet you'll leave it off though!
@@RuggedAdventures yeah definitely not settling any land speed records. I hunt the swamps of Big Cypress in South Florida. A 7 mile ride last weekend took over 2 hours. I'm going to try it this weekend!
Unless you are primarily a high speed person I see no reason to. It's actually much more stable in off camber situations without it. This video on creek riding actually has much more flexing than the sway bar video. ua-cam.com/video/jEYfwMraX_c/v-deo.html
Stay tuned for more and subscribe! I'm going to totally disconnect that left side too and see if the squeaking goes away. I bet it does.

I would think some UHMD plastic ones may help but that sway bar is outta here for me!
My squeak was from the top shock bolt being too tight.
I did another video on that exact thing. Between these two items and lubing the chassis it's much quieter!

I have a 2014 polaris rzr 800 4 LE. Glad to see another 800 in action. Nice video.
Thanks! I bet there's a ton of us out here but the shiney new ones get the press.

A switch for rock lights and led light bar and mirrors.
They sure have but so has everything else! Glad I got it when I did.
Shocks look a little tight .btw to squeak is the rubber bushings in the shock ends slap some grease in there and ur good to go
Always enjoy
Thanks!

Sounds like a bunch of fun! No sway bar has been great for me.
I broke my twice already I may no put them back this time after see this video
