Plock, Tegan M Make sure we’re ok with limited-slip

Plock, Tegan M CanAm has locking; Polaris unclear?

Bolejack, Jacob R Polaris has their own proprietary differential type. maybe add "or equivilant)?

Plock, Tegan M How critical is this? Does it turn the thing into a gator? Polaris does have dump box.

Bolejack, Jacob R Not critical, but part of limiting the spec to the exact 2-3 utv's that i want...

Plock, Tegan M Is there something specific that we’re trying to tie down?

Bolejack, Jacob R Nothing specific, coolers, gas cans, antlers... just need points to tie to.

Plock, Tegan M Confirming that this happens with accessory additions (typically)?

Bolejack, Jacob R I not sure exactly what you mean? Fully enclosed cab is something we need to us from factory. Typically they are add on when ordering? The units that i am targeting require the add on.
