Thanks, I am definitely adding a backup camera. I like the way it serves as a rearview mirror also. You killed two of my wishlist items with one mod. Thanks!

Anytime. I have the IR illuminator on the camera which sounds silly BUT it is helpful. We sometimes predator hunt at night so the IR lights up behind me to backup without having to turn the LEDs on.
If you have any questions feel free to PM me

Just a quick question here, if I have more I'll PM...
What make/model camera did you use? And did it come with a screen, or is that a separate item?
Thanks.

I went and looked it up as I really had no idea:
Amazon.com : 7 inch TFT LCD Digital Car Rear View Monitor with Waterproof Car Rear View Camera combo : Vehicle Backup Cameras : Electronics
It is a little under $40 for the camera and the screen - not the worlds best but works fine in my case and if you want you can always use a better camera. I had the same one on a RZR-4 and it held up well so that is really the reason I bought another one. Figured the picture quality is not as good as the one on our SUV but for $40 and it held up on a RZR, power washing and one time the kids "washing" the screen it was good enough.
The whole thing started out as an experiment - I wonder if these would work on my RZR because I can't see anything behind me once we add a cooler to the bed. Well it worked pretty well and I found I really liked having it. My wife loves it because she can see a stump or something low that is behind the machine that she could never see just looking behind her.

Your welcome! If u need anything just yell.
What the heck is the red wire for on both ends of the RCA extension cable for the camera?

Probably but both the LCD screen and the Camera already have 12v leads on them. My best guess is that the red lead on the RCA extension could be used to carry the 12v signal from the rear backup lights to the front and connect to the blue lead on the screen instead of having to try and locate the backup light lead up in the wiring harness.

A few of my 2015 JD 550, got to use it clearing some fence rows & repairing wind damaged fencing the other day. Took a ride last night in the 50 degree temps with the full moon, neat.

New tires for our Polaris Ranger. Originals were 26" but, new ones are 27".

Has a 5' plow mounted on front with swivel/toggle control on the shifter for winter duty...
Think I'm ready...
Your ready but I'm not, is that a Polaris brand enclosure cab? I'd like to have something like that on my Rhino, but the one's I found are $1,000.00 or more.

Nice trailer. Is it a home brew or store bought? (Hard to tell when viewing the picture on my phone.)
I've been nosing around for something similar to haul behind my NH TC33D. There are a lot of options that are inexpensive ($700 - $1500), but with a weight rating of only 1500 or 2000# - too small to make full use of my tractor. Then there's a huge step up in price ($10,000 or more) for larger units. I'd love to find something that would handle 4 or 5,000# or so with walking arm suspension for a reasonable price (a whole lot less than $10K). Possibly with the option to add a grapple down the road.

Not Polaris... I'll get the name off of it, but it's being serviced today and I can't remember (was all on there when I bought it used last year...)
The cordura wraps around a door frame and Velcros all around for good fit. The top half comes off door frame for summer versatility. Front window has bottom panel, and top 2/3 pops up or locks down, your preference.
