Wild boar Vs Gorilla Rad relocate kits

Anyone purchase either of these rad relocate kits i found some sites and the wild boar kit is around $165 ish mark and the Gorella kits are over $200 + U.S prices
I do not care if i lose the rack space i never haul anything on there
Do they rattle or make strange noises (that would drive me crazy)
Is the more money product worth it
Do they flip up out of the way easily to get at the fuses

Being that the prices you got are directly from WB and Gorilla you will likely get nailed with a hefty UPS Brokerage fee (I think they call it BROKErage because it can makeyou go BROKE) on top of the shipping they will charge you.

What machine do you need a kit for, maybe we can help you out!

Also, as far as I know, for the Outlander 500/650/800 machines (not the new gen 2 frame machines) aside from the factory XMR Kit, we are the ONLY company making a tip up kit for that model.

It's a guy from Saskatchewan that builds complete kits as well. You are able to mount the kit in three different positions. Makes it easy to get to your fuses and run those big ass snorkels!

Our standard kit mounts pretty far forward to make it easy for snorkels and getting to the fuses, heres a picture of the standard model kit, notice the extra protection along the bottom of the rad,



Heres a couple standard kits with custom face plates,







And heres the pivot style kit we make,







And a custom tilting style kit,



The powder coated background screens are an option for an extra $20. If you are seriously interested, let me know via PM and I can give you prices. Its nice to see members support the sites vendors

Fastwilly will become famous soon enough
I have one of Rubberdown's pivot style relocate kits on my bike. It fits great, easy to install and does not rattle at all. It also is way easier to pivot than the Can-Am one as it has wing nuts that do not require tools as opposed to bolts with the Can-Am kit. It is also priced very good. I would highly recommend his kit. I would also recommend getting the extra screen, best $20 you can spend.

This is our standard kit that comes with our logo, it looks exactly like this,



This is what our tilting kit looks like, this is the same logo but doesnt have the extra slots like on the non tilting style kit



Our kits dont rattle, everything is made very heavy duty and they have been known to save machines from a lot of damage during roll over situations.
