Just bought a 625i
Well I'm new to this forum. I am taking delivery today of a 625i. I researched the heck out of it for almost a month and determined for my use the 625 is what I needed that I could afford. I traded a Club Car XRT 900 which was slow and not very comfortable, but it did it's job around the house and farm without any problems. I have two grandsons and they both ride the ATVs around the farm and I just kind of hang out with my XRT. I live in Virginia Beach on a farm and they want to go do some trail riding in the mountains rather than always be on flat land, so I thought I would try something a little more suited for rough terrain so we could go to the Hatfield McCoy trails in West Virginia., even though we won't go there very often, but we have some trails in the woods and fields around the farm that we have a lot of fun with too. The farm is 600 acres. My question is simple: Do any of you own a 625i and how do you like it? It's a crossover, which is what I need because I also use it as a large wheelbarrow or small pickup around the house, farm and a shooting range I set up.

2nd battery
Has anyone added a second battery to a 825i? I know the diesel has the option for a second battery. Where would it go in a diesel? I would assume the cab, seat, spacing etc is the same in the gas as in the diesel. I have six lights and when I use my Boss plow they dim out. I know it's a big load :D but a second battery would be nice. Added insurance that is.

About to be a new owner
After much contemplation and even more shopping, I have put a deposit down on a 2014 gator 825. I am waiting for a loan to close before I pick it up, but hopefully in the next couple weeks.
The decision came down to a slightly used honda pioneer 700- 2 seater and the gator. While I liked the idea of a transmission of the pioneer, it felt a little underpowered and slow to find the proper gear. The bed also seemed a little small.
I shopped around until I was able to find the gator I wanted without too many add ons to make the price too high. I getting an olive and black 825 with top, windshield, and half doors(wife's request). I was able to take advantage of Deere's $700 rebate. I will add a winch and snow plow after I pick it up.
Speaking of snow plow, does anyone have the cycle country 72" on their gator? I won't be plowing anything but my drive, and do t want to drop a lot more $$ on a boss plow. I also like the quick attach/detach of the cycle country.
Thanks for any advice!

Big sky utv gun mount
Hi,
If you own the Big Sky Model SBR-2G-UTV Gun Mount would you please measure the distance between the gun brackets as shown in the photo, as indicated by the white line.
Just trying to determine if I have enough width available to install the Big Sky UTV Model. I have Emailed the company twice for this information, but they have not replied.
Thanks,
FredSG

Oil pressure relief valve spring
I am rebuilding the engine (Kawasaki FD620D) on my 2001 6x4 Gator. I removed the oil pump to clean/inspect and noticed the oil pressure relief valve spring is loose under the cover plate. I measured the spring free length and it is well within spec.
Does anyone know if this is OK? Or should the spring be under pressure when the oil pump cover is bolted down?
The spring free length is supposed to be 19.50mm MIN, mine is 21.22mm.
Thanks

Cycle country plow
Does anyone have one of these on their gator? I want to put one on my 825 when I get it. I have a tractor I can use when I need heavy capabilities, just want something I can put on and take off easily and just clear my drive in small snows.
Those who have it, do you like it. Anything I should know?
Thanks

Install Mid range light kit
Have 2014 625i, want to install light kit BM24016 using wiring harness 24089. Instruction for harness states that wiring harness is behind battery when it looks like it is under tray below hood. Not sure how to route harness. If wiring harness under hood then you could use switch on dash with different harness , correct? Need help. John Deere says right harness for this Gator.

Secondary Clutch Removal on Older Gator
Hello Everyone,
I have an older model John Deere 4x2 Gator purchased new in 2004. The serial number is 039280 and the Product Identification Number is W004X2X062164.
Recently, it began throwing the belt several times a day. I discovered at high speeds the secondary clutch had a considerable amount of play and wobble in it and am assuming it needs to be replaced. However, when you remove the bolt that attaches the secondary clutch, there's not enough width to slide it off without hitting the manifold. Do I need to remove the manifold to slide the secondary clutch off or am I overlooking something simple?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

charging sytem
been meaning to post this for a while for it is very important and could save allot of trouble and potentially life or death for our fellow riders.
It has happened to myself and other people on this forum etc.
the 850i main charging circuit is ran threw a 40 amp fuse located in the storage compartment on passengers side. this fuse and holder can melt( due i believe to overtaxing your charging system) jd is aware of this problem now and they are replacing mine under warranty.
if this fuse blows the 850 will then be running only on battery power and will get you about only half a mile if your lucky and boosting it or dual battery kit will not get you home. symptoms will be first dimming of lights then loss of power in engine then engine will stale then your not rolling anymore. could be very dangerous if ascending descending a steep hill or water crossings or if one is in cold weather and not prepared to walk the distance to find help.
so PLEASE anyone going into the back country by themselves carry some additional 40 amp fuses. it happened to me one night coming home from fishing and i was 30+ miles from my truck. good thing i always bring extra fuses and just happened to have my voltmeter with me.
everyone be safe out there and have a great holiday season
and don't forget to put something under the tree for the gator lol
cheers

A Ride through the Clouds near Bumble Bee AZ
The weather had taken a turn for the worse so we thought it would be a great day for a ride. :) We had two side by sides and a quad. Its always nice to have some different machines on the trail to mix it up a bit.
Since it had been raining the night before we decided to meet at 8 AM after the sun came up.
The rain had stopped and it was cool for us at 47 degrees. I led the way on one of my short cuts up and over the mountain. It was a bit eerie riding on some rocky technical trails inside a cloud. Visibility was not very good at times to say the least.
Once we made it to one of the many mines in the area, the weather cleared up a bit, it was beautiful.
After some exploring we headed over to one of my favorite trails, the Desoto Mine Trail. This trail is listed in Arizona Backroads & 4 wheel drive trails book. I dont go by the book but I do most of the trail depending on how long we are going to be out.
We took one of the many side trails to the top of the mountain above Desoto Mine. Im not sure why Jim didnt follow me up this steep climb
Normally you can see for miles but today most of our view was blocked by scattered clouds.
We headed back down the mountain on a very washed out trail.
The clouds became dark and seemed to be building just off in the distance.
I decided to take one of the only trails that heads back to a main gravel road. This trail was in much worse shape than the last time I was on it. It was really washed out and had a lot of large jagged rocks to bounce over.
This ended up being not such a good thing for me as when I reached the top Zane said I had a flat tire. I pulled to the side of the trail and started to work on the tire. I was trying to plug a large gash in the side wall when Zane squatted down next to me and said, What about the other 2 slits? Ugh There were three large holes in the sidewall, each was about 3 inches long. There was no way I was going to plug them all. (But that didn't stop me from trying.)
After giving up on the tire, the weather added insult to injury and it started to hail.
I decided to drive the 4 miles down the mountain to the main road on a flat rear tire while Zane went back to get my truck and trailer.
We ended up making it out safely and we all really enjoyed the ride (and the ever changing weather).
