You got a trick to zooming in ? ---- Even when I save a pic and zoom real tight , I can get close but it is very blurry the one on the left looks like it has a ES shifter button ??? Can you see , I can't see it : if the trailer hitch is welded ( 98-2001 full time 4wd ) or bolted ( 2002-2004 electric engage 4wd/2wd ) , my eyes getting bad I guess 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Wilson_™ 6,603 Posted January 2, 2021 naw my eyes aren't that good ether, at least i think there not... heres a close up pic left hand light switch, high low, and kill switch, right hand 4wd 2wd button, couple of nice looking bikes for the year models. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishfiles 20,148 Posted January 2, 2021 You can zoom much better than me --- another distinguishing thing I can see in your pic , the selectable models have 4 lights on top the dash pod screen , all time 4wd have 3 lights --- charaznable should fell right at home , we have a herd of ES building 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AKATV 851 Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) I just picked up a 99 Foreman 450S model with a shift problem said he also had a "4wd thing" in a box he never installed I thought he might just have a newer front diff with the electronic 4wd he was going to rig up, but nope- it was an older Warn 424, so that was cool Paid 900.00 for it and just had the typical cracked shift plate looks pretty good all stock, runs great so that deal worked out Do not want to post picture of mine as the picture above is hard to follow- haha Awesome looking Foreman 450 Fish! I scrolled down and my brain said "wait go back up .....was that a MOUNTED MACHETE? Nice Edited January 3, 2021 by AKATV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
