I think it's broke...

[desertwheeler]

What do you think?? Haha

So who has the best swaybar for the xp900's. I've seen cognitos just curious what else is out their and good. I like to rockcrawl so don't want a crazy stiff one.

Jeeesh buddy, what were you doing? I broke stuff in Moab doing stuff I shouldn't have but what were you doing you shouldn't have?

 

[desertwheeler]

I'm innocent I tell you! Nothing too crazy I think it was more of the new shocks over working the stock bar.

At least you didn't break something else. Bet you could shop around and get a stock replacement cheap. Buy 2 and have a spare and still be money ahead.

Pretty common on the 900's. Not the best of part form the factory. I would definitely look into a Cognito Sway bar as it will not break like the cheapy factory one. We have had great results with them!

Used ones are still 100 plus shipping. This one didn't last long after after the new shocks but still lasted 1800 miles

I have the cognito. If you install it be sure to gusset your trailing arms as my sway link has wobbled out of the arm and oblonged the hole. I will have to weld a flat plate in the arm now.

Well I got a call tonight from my dad and he just got back from a ride and is pretty sure the cognito sway bar broke on him. He thinks it's in the middle and didn't get a chance to take the boxes out to see for sure. He could hear something banging around and it had a lot of body roll. I told him to send me a picture tomorrow when he takes it apart. I didn't see any info on there site about warranty but I'll wait to see what exactly happened.

I broke my stock one finally this last season. So I got one that was a little stiffer then stock and one weekend out it broke the bolts out of the trailing arms. Now going to make new trailing arms.

If you need to replace your sway bar check out Hellwig sway bars. Hellwig builds great sway bars for everything, it's what they do. I have their rear sway bar on my Class A motorhome. Its a big ass bar! They make sway bars for both the XP900 & 1000. Sean Cook (Speed Energy UTV) runs the Hellwig bar. I think it was Sean who approached Hellwig to build UTV bars.

Cool features of the Hellwig sway bar is its solid Chromoly, not hollow tube. Because of this the bar is much smaller in diameter then stock. The bar has two adjustment holes so you can soften or stiffen the bar. It comes with a lifetime warranty. And the best part is you can get the bar with new bushings & hardware for under $200.

I would have got the hellwig bar but I didn't even know they made it. I like the adjustable part.

So did the sway bar break or did the link bolt wobble out of the trailing arm?

He hasn't looked yet. The trailing arms are fine he said. I'm hopeing he looks today. I think it's either the bar broke or broke the mounts at the frame.

I honestly enjoyed my 900 without a sway bar, especially for rock crawling and trail riding

 

[desertwheeler]

I do too but the high speed cornering gets pretty tricky haha. It sure rode super smooth when the stocker broke.

Hellwig makes our bar for us. We are the ones who started this with them 3 years ago. If you have a problem just let us know, but I bet you broke the frame mount, it is common, we offer frame gussets for that.

Yeah I will probably call you either way haha. I haven't seen it yet since my dad still has it with him. I'll be around it tomorrow if he doesn't look by then. I'd rather replace the bar than rebuild the frame mounts haha.
I'd like to have the adjustability of making it softer or harder. But the bar felt good to me when I drove it.
