Buyer's Guide for UTV Miscellaneous Accessories: Helping You Shop!

UTV Sound Deadening and Noise Control: Making Cabs Livable

Stock UTVs are loud! Engine noise, exhaust, tire roar, wind, and vibration all contribute to cab environments where you're shouting to be heard by passengers two feet away. Sound-deadening materials address this by adding mass and dampening to panels that transmit sound into the cab. Quality automotive-grade materials like Dynamat or similar products use constrained-layer dampening: thick butyl rubber backing with aluminum facing that stops panel resonance and blocks sound transmission.

Application areas that provide maximum benefit include firewalls (between engine and cab), floor pans, door panels, and roof panels. Turbocharged machines and those with aggressive exhaust benefit most since they're loudest to start with. Combined with proper cab enclosures and sealing, side-by-side sound deadening creates comfortable environments even during extended riding.

UTV Limit Straps: Protecting Suspension and Drivetrain

Limit straps are simple but critical components that many riders don't think about until something breaks.

What they do: Limit straps prevent your suspension from extending beyond safe limits during full droop (wheel hanging down). Without limit straps, your CV axles, A-arms, and shock shafts can overextend, causing damage or catastrophic failure.
When you need them: lifted machines, long travel setups, and any application where suspension travel increases beyond stock need limit straps. Stock machines sometimes include limit straps from the factory, but aftermarket suspension often doesn't. Proper installation involves mounting straps to the frame and A-arms with an appropriate length that allows full suspension droop without overextending components. Too short, and they limit suspension travel unnecessarily. Too long and they don't protect.

Protective Covers and Accessories for Your Trusty Side-by-Side

If you’ve done any riding whatsoever in your UTV, it’s probably of little surprise to you that there is a high demand for high-quality covers to protect your shocks. They’re constantly deluged, after all, with mud, rocks, water, and good-old UTV exposure. A good UTV shock cover made with materials like neoprene is a lifesaver.

A-arm and CV boot protection is also no small matter if you intend to do more than casual tooling in your UTV. Torn CV boots lead to joint contamination and expensive failures, making simple boot guards cheap insurance.

Finally, tailgate accents, styling pieces, and trim let you personalize your look without hurting function. These range from simple decals to machined aluminum badges that give your machine a custom appearance. They might not improve performance, but they make your machine uniquely yours and often just make you smile, which has value even if it's not measurable.

Miscellaneous UTV Accessories Frequently Asked Questions

Does sound deadening really make a dent in the noise?

Yes! The catch is you need adequate coverage of the right areas (firewall, floor, doors) with quality materials properly installed. Slapping a few random pieces on won't do much.

Are limit straps actually necessary, or just "nice to have"?

For stock machines with stock suspension, limit straps might be overkill since manufacturers design suspension travel within component limits. For lifted machines, long travel setups, or any time you've increased suspension travel beyond stock, limit straps transition from "nice to have" to "absolutely necessary."

How often do protective covers need replacement?

This varies dramatically based on riding conditions and cover quality. Shock covers in rocky terrain might need replacement every season or two as abrasion and impacts degrade material. In less severe conditions, quality covers last 3-5+ years. Inspect covers regularly for tears, excessive wear, or compromised areas that no longer protect effectively. Replace any cover that's torn or damaged. Once protective material fails, the component underneath is exposed to damage. Quality covers cost $20-60 typically, which is cheap compared to the $300-600+ shocks they protect or the $100-300 CV boots they shield.
